Hi,

I had exactly the same problem as Sylvain with regards to blank pages
opening in new windows when I installed ntop into a firewall on CD that
I created based on SuSE.  After banging my head against a wall I think I
have found out what the problem is:


Accessing pages directly with lynx, netscape, moz does not work - they
advertise content-type being allowed as gzip

Accessing the same pages with GET or wget works perfectly fine, they do
not advertise much.

I am not sure why this does not work in a chrooted or minimal
environment as I am using the same libs as on my production suse box.  I
undef'd HAVE_ZLIB in http.c and all works fine.  

I will also be posting a patch this afternoon to fix compilation of ntop
with threads disabled (there are a few ifdefs missing, so it won't
compile).  I know it is a bad idea to run ntop without threads, but if
it is an option, I guess it should work.

Shall I also add a configure option to disable using ZLIB for http data
?

five steering wheels hidden about the cockpit, none of which followed
the same principles -- but you'd be able to shift gears with your car
stereo. Useful feature, that.
