Don't know if it will help in your case, but the dnsCache.db file seems to cause me trouble when it gets "big". Stop nTop, delete that file, and fire it up again. Maybe it will help - if not you didn't really hurt anything.

I use to have the 3.2 version installed from a RPM on a Fedora 4 machine and that one use to be kind of stable. Lately I got the latest stable version from http://downloads.sourceforge.net/ntop/ntop-3.3.tar.gz and compiled that on Fedora 5 and Fedora 4 because I found no RPM available. All dependencies solved and it did compiled OK. I start Ntop with a command like: ntop -u ntop -i eth1 --daemon --use-syslog=daemon --no-promiscuous --no-fc or ntop -u ntop -i eth1 --use-syslog=daemon --no-promiscuous --no-fc & Unfortunatelly it will stay up for a while (10 min to xx days) and then will crash with an error similar to: FC4 crash *** glibc detected *** ntop: free(): invalid pointer: 0x089681f0 *** ======= Backtrace: ========= /lib/libc.so.6[0xe511e0] /lib/libc.so.6(__libc_free+0x77)[0xe5172b] /usr/local/lib/libntopreport-3.3(ntop_safefree+0x27)[0x7c082b] /usr/local/lib/libntopreport-3.3(freeSession+0x124)[0x7d63f0] /usr/local/lib/libntopreport-3.3(scanTimedoutTCPSessions+0x1dc)[0x7d699c ] /usr/local/lib/libntopreport-3.3(purgeIdleHosts+0x3bb)[0x7ba08f] /usr/local/lib/libntopreport-3.3(scanIdleLoop+0x22f)[0x7c16e3] /lib/libpthread.so.0[0x6fcbd4] /lib/libc.so.6(__clone+0x5e)[0xeb84fe] ======= Memory map: ======== Any Ideas? Also 3.3 does look great but is slow over a satellite connection compared to 3.2.
