read "docs/BUILD-NTOP.txt"... which clearly, like in line 2, says you need
gdbm.
As to ncurses, it's pretty basic:
libncurses.so.5 is needed by info-4.0b-3
libncurses.so.5 is needed by less-358-21
libncurses.so.5 is needed by procps-2.0.7-11
libncurses.so.5 is needed by psmisc-20.1-2
libncurses.so.5 is needed by python-1.5.2-35
libncurses.so.5 is needed by util-linux-2.11f-9
the headers you're missing are often part of the rpm for ncurses-devel

Subject: RE: [Ntop] configure script cannot find crypt
Yeah, I reinstalled the OS, and the configure script found the crypt
library. Not sure what the problem is, because my files and links look like
they did before. Ntop is up an running.
I am using Mandrake 8.2, 2.4.18. I usually do a stipped down install of the
os, only putting in the things that I know I need. If you have a list of
pre-ntop-install requirements somewhere, you may want to add gdbm and
ncurses to the list. I seemed to have ncurses, but not the .h file, which
seems a common problem with the way I install the OS. Not sure if there is
an option somewhere to include those files along with the program.
Thanks again for your help,
Fenn

Not a clue... Something in your install is wrong. But I don't know which
OS & distribution you have, what updates you've applied, etc.
I do know that it's not an ntop problem, it's a library one. ntop is
correctly failing because it can't find a critical library! You have a
basic, valid, albeit minimal c program to compile and link, right? which
fails to compile with gcc... Right???
#include <assert.h>
char crypt();
int main() {
crypt();
return 0; }
gcc -o testpgm -g -O2 -pipe testpgm.c -lcrypt
I suggest you take it up with the vendor/support channel of your distro or
the gcc mailing list...

Subject: RE: [Ntop] configure script cannot find crypt
I am at a loss. It does not look like libcrypt is a symlink to libcrypto (in
your listing). Any good source of the crypt library that I could attempt to
reinstall from? I have installed glibc/with crypt add-on successfully. Makes
no difference. Here are my listings of libcrypt and libcrypto files:
[root@chaos /usr/lib]# ls -l libcr*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 May 9 00:31 libcrack.so.2 ->
libcrack.so.2.7*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 26980 Feb 21 09:09 libcrack.so.2.7*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 118718 Mar 7 22:22 libcrypt.a
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 May 9 00:32 libcrypto.so.0 ->
libcrypto.so.0.9.6*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 776176 Feb 21 14:07 libcrypto.so.0.9.6*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Jun 6 20:12 libcrypt.so ->

[root@chaos /lib]# ls -l libcr*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 19952 Mar 7 22:45 libcrypt-2.2.4.so*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Jun 6 20:12 libcrypt.so.1 ->
libcrypt-2.2.4.so*
Looks like /usr/lib/libcrypt.so.1 links to /lib/libcrypt.so.1 which in turn
links to /lib/libcrypt-2.2.4.so
Is that okay?
I seem to be missing this link (and my libcrypto.so.0.9.6 is in /usr/lib):
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Feb 11 01:18 /lib/libcrypto.so.2
-> libcrypto.so.0.9.6b
Sorry to keep bothering you with this.

P.S. Since starting this installation, my Ethereal installation has become
broken. Now it core dumps/segmenation faults whenever I try to start it.

You can't get away from it, because crypt() is used to store the passwords
in ntop_pw.db...
the 1st test is the basic library set, then it tests -lc (libc.so) and
then -lcrypt (libcrypt.so).
[bstrauss@tigger ntop-current]$ gcc -o x -g -O2 -pipe x.c -ldl
/tmp/cc8G58rB.o: In function `main':
/home/ntop/ntop-current/x.c:17: undefined reference to `crypt'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
[bstrauss@tigger ntop-current]$ gcc -o x -g -O2 -pipe x.c -ldl -lc
/tmp/cc0ScRkS.o: In function `main':
/home/ntop/ntop-current/x.c:17: undefined reference to `crypt'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
[bstrauss@tigger ntop-current]$ gcc -o x -g -O2 -pipe x.c -ldl -lcrypt
**success**
(Assuming Linux), ld looks in the "trusted" libraries, /usr/lib and /lib
followed by whatever is specified in the /etc/ld.so.conf files - check the
man pages on ld.so and ldconfig...
It *sounds* like you don't have crypt configured properly...
Now in my case, libcrypt.so is actually a link to libcrypto:
[bstrauss@tigger ntop-current]$ ls -l /usr/lib/libcrypt*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 114706 Apr 2 10:43 /usr/lib/libcrypt.a
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1475000 Sep 7 2001 /usr/lib/libcrypto.a
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Feb 11 02:01
/usr/lib/libcrypto.so -> ../../lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.6b
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 115038 Apr 2 10:43
/usr/lib/libcrypt_p.a
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Apr 25 17:00
/usr/lib/libcrypt.so -> ../../lib/libcrypt.so.1
[bstrauss@tigger ntop-current]$ ls -l /lib/libcrypt*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 85143 Apr 2 10:43
/lib/libcrypt-2.2.4.so
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 918752 Sep 7 2001
/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.6b
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Feb 11 01:18
/lib/libcrypto.so.2 -> libcrypto.so.0.9.6b
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Apr 25 17:00
/lib/libcrypt.so.1 -> libcrypt-2.2.4.so
[bstrauss@tigger ntop-current]$
So, check your files - do the ls -l, not just a find - perhaps you have a
bad link??

Subject: RE: [Ntop] configure script cannot find crypt
It means that in the set of include libraries it couldn't find the
definition of the function crypt.
confdefs.h is created by ./configure instead of trying to put it all on the
command line. It's the precursor to config.h - no worries
Look in config.log to see WHICH test for crypt blew up - it tries to find it
in a couple of (usual) places. E.g.:
configure:4046: checking for crypt
configure:4092: checking for crypt in -lc
configure:4137: checking for crypt in -lcrypt
Where/how did you install it?
With me, it looks like it's in two places (one of which is bogus):
[bstrauss@tigger ntop-current]$ locate libcrypt
/usr/lib/libcrypt.a
/usr/lib/libcrypt.so
/usr/lib/libcrypto.a
/usr/lib/libcrypto.so
/usr/lib/libcrypt_p.a
/lib/libcrypt-2.2.4.so
/lib/libcrypt.so.1
/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.6b
/lib/libcrypto.so.2
[bstrauss@tigger ntop-current]$ ldd /usr/lib/libcrypt.so
libc.so.6 => /lib/i686/libc.so.6 (0x40027000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)

Hi, and thanks for responding.
My crypt.h appears to be in place. I found the exact problem in this mailing
list archive from 1 year ago. The suggested solution was to install glibc
with the glibc-crypt add-on. I tried that, to no avail. The config.log shows
the following:
configure:3744: checking for crypt
configure:3772: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -pipe conftest.c -ldl 1>&5
/root/tmp/ccuPQkPb.o: In function `main':
/usr/src/ntop/configure:3766: undefined reference to `crypt'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure: failed program was:
#line 3749 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
/* System header to define __stub macros and hopefully few prototypes,

#include <assert.h>
/* Override any gcc2 internal prototype to avoid an error. */
/* We use char because int might match the return type of a gcc2
builtin and then its argument prototype would still apply. */
char crypt();
I am not sure what it means by an undefined reference to crypt. Any
suggestions?

Look in config.log to see what ./configure found when looking for crypt -
could be you're missing the header files (often those are in a -devel rpm if
you're running RedHat)

I am trying to install ntop, and the configure script cannot seem to find
the crypt library. I think I have it installed. Doing a find on *crypt*
shows this:
/usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0
/usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.6
/usr/lib/libcrypt.a
/usr/lib/libcrypt.so
/lib/libcrypt-2.2.4.so
/lib/libcrypt.so.1
Do I need something else?
