Same answer as the last time you (or somebody else) asked the same question.
Either you're not running ntop as root (so it can't open the interface in
promiscuous mode) or something else is something wrong with your
environment. That's a basic sockets error message which ntop is just
repeating back to you. STFW, i.e. google for:
libpcap "socket: Address family not supported by protocol"
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=libpcap+%22socket
%3A+Address+family+not+supported+by+protocol%22
Gives:

Another message indicates you might be missing libpcap.

Subject: [Ntop] problem with starting ntop
Hi,
I am trying to run ntop on suse 2.4.10 kernel.
When starting ntop I get the following:
11/Oct/2002 12:33:37 socket: Address family not supported by protocol
11/Oct/2002 12:33:37 Please select another interface using the -i flag.
Any hints concerning this?
Thanks
Bob
