Ok, the -L did work for logging, but it's no where in either the man page or the INSTALL file.
Is it possible to change the facility in which it logs to eg. /var/log/ntop instead of /var/log/messags? -Devon -----Original Message----- From: Burton M.

Please note that if ntop (ever) forks a child, in any case the syslog will be used for this child. For the main thread (basic startup messages) it's either standard output or syslog - child messages will be in syslog. That's something like /var/log/system.log or similar on your system Similarly, tracing is turned on by the -t 3 (--trace-level 3) parameter -----Burton -----Original Message----- From: Devon Harding - GTHLA [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, April 17, 2002 12:32 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Devon Harding - GTHLA; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Ntop] Ntop Dies How do I turn on logging and where is the log file created? -Devon -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, April 17, 2002 10:53 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Devon Harding - GTHLA; 'Burton M.
