ALL versions that we supply and support have the frozen rrdtools version.
If you are talking about a binary package that's not from ntop's area at
SourceForge, take ANY questions, ESPECIALLY packaging ones up with the
packager.

Subject: RE: [Ntop-dev] RRD plugin problem

Thank you for the help. the --no-mac solves the problem. The errors I got
where only comming from 2 subnets so I suspect that the problem is at some
switch(es).

sorry that I did not post any conf. data. I start ntop with #ntop -untop -P
/home/ntop

(I'm fairly new to ntop so I have not much of a configuration yet :)

BTW from what version ntop uses a frozen version of rrd? The FC3 binar I got
from dag complained that I should install rrd.

Thanks again
