<siren>User error!</siren> <grin /> The name of the ntop admin id is "admin"
It has nothing to do with the unix userid ntop runs under via the -u parameter! -----Burton -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Ken Johnson Sent: Wednesday, June 12, 2002 12:55 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Ntop] unable to configure ntop via the web interface I'm unable to configure ntop via the web interface. I'm prompted for a user name and password, but authentication always fails when I enter 'ntop' and 'ntop' as the username and password. There is a linux user 'ntop' with password 'ntop'. That user is the owner of the directory /home1/ntop. I used the command line: ntop -P /home1/ntop -u ntop -A to set the admin password as 'ntop'. I use the command line: ntop -a /dev/null -P /home1/ntop -u ntop -i eth3 -d to start the program. I have reviewed the FAQ and the user & dev archives back to January 2002, but I haven't found a description of a similar problem. (Pointers to overlooked information gratefully accepted.) If the source of my problem isn't immediately obvious, I'd be pleased to receive helpful suggestions about how to gather addtional information which could narrow down the problem. Configuration information follows: Hardware Type & # of processors 1 AMD K6-2 550 Mhz Amount of memory 128 Mbytes # network interfaces and types 4 Linksys PCI interfaces Software NTop version, etc. ntop-2.0.99-rc2.tar openssl-0.9.6d.tar libpcap-0.7.1.tar Linux vendor & version Red Hat 6.2 Any major upgrades no gcc version (e.g. gcc --version) egcs-2.91.66 glibc version glibc-2.1.3-15 (from RPM -q -a) What else is running Not much, but see output from ps -Af at end of message. (This is one of 3-4 dozen similarly configured linux systems in the computer room adjacent to the lab. I chose it because it is lightly used.) Network Telnet access to this system is via eth0, which is connected through Ethernet switches and a router to the corporate network. eth1 & eth2 are unused at the current time. eth3 is the port used by ntop. eth3 is connected to a Fast Ethernet hub (a real hub, floods to all ports, not a switch). There are two of our own devices connected to the same hub; it is traffic to and from those devices which we wish to monitor. The 4th connection to the hub is an upstream connection to an Ethernet switch to the corporate network. So this means that I would expect to see a fair amount of broadcast traffic (DHCP, ARP) but directed traffic only to and from the two of our own devices.
