Fixed in cauldron.

Comment 2 Guillaume Rousse 2012-06-27 16:37:57 CEST

ntop-4.1.0-5.1 submitted in updates_testing for mageia 2.

Suggested advisory:

The ntop-4.1.0-5mga2 package included a buggy systemd service file, with a path to the configuration inconsistent with its actual location. The ntop-4.1.0-5.1mga2 package fixes this issue.

Comment 3 Dave Hodgins 2012-07-03 04:43:04 CEST

Installed ntop from Core Release
followed /usr/share/doc/ntop/1STRUN.txt,
correcting the command to set the password to
/usr/bin/ntop -P /usr/share/ntop -u ntop -A

I think the 1STRUN.txt should be corrected, but as that is not
a regression, I'll let Guillaume decide whether or not to do so.

Installed ntop from Core Release on mga2-64.

I confirm Dave's previous post, I got the same result after installing the update.
