The menus are just html files. There is a set for regular mode and a j_xxx.html set for border sniffer mode. So the link just hasn't been deleted.
As to whether/why sessions are disabled, suggest you grep in the code - look for myGlobals.borderSnifferMode and follow it into initialize.c where it sets the other flags. You'll have to figure out which is disabling the session reporting, enable that one and then see what you get.

When border sniffer mode was first introduced the session information was still available and by using the sql-host (-b) configuration I was able to save the sessions into a mySQL database and write reports based on the information. The session information is important to me in that I use it to identify who is talking to whom on my network. This helped me make recommendations on changing WAN routes and connections and also reposition various servers (mail, file and application) to more central locations. This information along with WAN bandwidth usage reports made a complete picture. Is there anyway to gather the session information using the latest version of Ntop, while using border sniffer mode? The fact that the session information is still a menu selection when in border sniffer mode, makes me think there might be a way. I assume if there was not that it would have been removed from the menu along with the other tabs and menu items. Any suggestions or recommendations would be appreciated.
