Hi,
after Google'ing around a few people seem to have issues running Ntop on
SPARC architecture so I have no idea if there is a solution for this or
if it's just 'discontinued support' but I thought I'd give it a shot anyway.
As per all other bug reports running Ntop on Debian SPARC gives "bus
error" as output.

I basically followed this guide:
http://diatel.wordpress.com/2011/12/07/installing-ntop-debian-squeeze/
to ensure that I was doing things correctly and that no other compile
options/libraries or extra stuff was needed.....
The default package in Debian seems to be version 2.6.x which is
obsolete and also I think the location portion of the software is broken
too as activating DNS lookups with -n2 on startup shows each domain
however, when used in conjunction with the Google Maps API nothing shows
up on the grid as a location.
Further Googling for the SIGBus error came up with quite a few hits
which indicated libc to be doing funky things and taking Iceweasel as an
example:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=634261
I can't comment on the programming side as unfortunately my programming
skills were limited to Turbo Pascal back at school in the late 90s
(Windows 98 was already out so don't ask why MSDOS but that was what was
taught), but if someone has any suggestions or thoughts it would be
great to get a fix :-)
Unfortunately I don't have any spare x64 systems to make my life
easy..... :-(
Regards,
Kaya
