Hi all, I've spent hours looking through the docs, FAQ and mailing list archives, and I still don't completely understand name resolution.
I'm running ntop 3.3 on CentOS 4.5. I have a 192.168.0.0/22 network, with a mix of Windows PCs and Linux servers. I've tried running ntop with and without these parameters, which doesn't have any effect: --no-mac --local-subnets 192.168.0.0/22 I've got a few Windows PCs in DNS, but they are not consistently named: pc1 pc2.domain.com pc3 For those PCs that are not in DNS, I see some entries like: pc22 [NetBIOS] But others are listed only by IP address: 192.168.0.22 192.168.0.45 192.168.0.104 I thought I understood that ntop will try to resolve IP addresses with DNS first, then use netbios. For those PCs that show an IP address only, I can resolve it with nbtstat on a Windows box, so I know the name is available. Is there any way to config ntop to use specific dns/netbios servers? Can anyone help me with this? And/or point me to some docs that can explain how to create a consistent configuration?
