RE: [Ntop] ntop on VT100

[Glastris, Jonathan]

Thanks!!!  So those screen shots I saw with all those columbs of sent/received packets and their source/destination hosts was from the web page, not the vt100 terminal...  Hmm, what kind of UNIX tool can't be used from the CLI...   -----Original Message----- From: Burton M.

Thanks to whomever can help me out. - Jonathan
