 Thanks for the tip on Darkstat. Not nearly as pretty as ntop. :)
 
 It won't seem to start when selecting more than 1 interface,,, is that
 normal behavior?

er, sorry, not used it for a while so I can't remember its default
behaviour, you'll just have to fiddle and see, but I vaguely recall that
it does only snoop on one interface at a time; it's sort of halfway
between wireshark and ntop but lacking much of both!

it works well but for certain combinations of
environment/build/phase-of-the-moon it's unstable to the point of
uselessness

RE: [pfSense Support] ntop is dumped

2009-12-31 Thread Joseph L. Casale
I use pfsense  1.2.3-RELEASE and I installed ntop v.3.3.8. but Ntop working 5
minutes and then stop logs is below kernel: pid 49342 (ntop), uid 0: exited on
signal 11 (core dumped)  How can I resolve my problem ?

Thank you for your help

Pretty much my experience as well across several platforms, ntop is a memory 
pig.
Without any way to retain state its really only useful for short interactive use
anyway.

What size of system, and what other packages are installed?

I have seen this as well, but not on every system. I have some customer
routers where it has run indefinitely (weeks, months, etc) and then I
have some routers where it only runs for about 10 minutes. So far I
haven't been able to track it down or find any correlations, but I
haven't really gotten in-depth with it yet.
