I have ntopng up and running on Ubuntu 14.10. I simply did an apt-get
install, I did not compile from sources. I can manually start ntopng by
running "sudo service ntopng start", but ntopng does not automatically
start at boot. I see a start script in /etc/init.d. I checked
/var/log/ntopng/ntopng.log and see the following messages:

When I enter "service redis-server status" I see redis-server running. I'm
not sure if ntopng is trying to start before redis-server is completely up.
I can manually start ntopng using "sudo service ntopng start" and see good
data being captured and presented. What should I check next to take care of
the redis-server / ntopng problem at reboot?
