ntop has been installed, but is not quite ready to be used yet!
4
You need to set an administrator password for ntop before it may be used.
6
First, edit the configuration file - %%LOCALBASE%%/etc/ntop/ntop.conf.sample
9
Copy it to %%LOCALBASE%%/etc/ntop/ntop.conf and make changes appropriate
12
Second, as root, execute the following command to set this password:
14
# %%LOCALBASE%%/bin/ntop @%%LOCALBASE%%/etc/ntop/ntop.conf -A
16
ntop may now be started. The recommended method to do so is via the
17
installed startup script. As root, execute the following command:
19
# sh %%LOCALBASE%%/etc/rc.d/ntop.sh
21
The recommended way to change startup flags for ntop is to edit the
22
ntop.conf file. Very little is in the script (interfaces).
24
Note that the installed startup script will NOT be execute at system
25
startup by default. If you wish ntop to start when your system boots,
26
you should make this script executable:
28
# chmod 555 %%LOCALBASE%%/etc/rc/ntop.sh
30
