fine by me .. it is just that the new functionality is
way ntop is moving ...  see url

http://www.ntop.org/nprobe/unveiling-application-visibility-in-ntop-and-
nprobe-both-in-netflow-v9-and-ipfix/

maybe better to wait until   ntop 4.1.2 is stable and incorporated into
package tree

thanks for looking
