Please assist in providing installation staps.
Thanks!

Looks like you are missing some dependency. Most likely the development version.

Thank You Very Much, So do you suggest downloading the older version and test?

Thank You again!

I can't see an error in the output you posted, so can you post the part with the actual error message (and about 5 lines before the error shows up).

Ntop 3.2-41 is on the opensuse repository. No compiling needed

I think you need to install net-snmp-devel in order to resolve that problem. Another option is to install ntop using YAST as mentioned above.

[ethiopia]

Thank You very much for your time and assistance. i have managed to install ntop3.2 . i can access it through the web as well. but i need addidtional information on the settings that i have to make.
If i need to only monitor the switches and routers instead of all the workstations what changes do i have to make? or if i just need to monitor the routers, what changes do i have to make. Please assit..............

Thank You again!

[gogalthorp]

Try info or man ntop this will normally get you how to set things up. If that does not work try the developers web page.

ntop - network top

Check that website out and join their mailing list. When I set up NTop I asked in the mailing list and got my issues resolved promptly.
