Description Peter Simons 2003-09-20 21:12:49 UTC

I noticed two things about the ntop 2.2 ebuild:

 1) It's database files in /var/lib/ntop are, in the default installation,
world-wide readable! This should probably be restricted (by directory permissions).

 2) Without rdd support, ntop loses all information during a
shutdown/crash/reboot. It would be very nice to add rdd support to the ebuild,
because without it, ntop is more or less useless.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

And another thing: The ebuild does not install all the documentation! Most notably the FAQ is missing.

feel free to submit an enhanced ebuild or patch

Comment 3 Peter Simons 2004-04-05 08:55:55 UTC

Since I don't use ntop any longer, there is little chance I'll ever do that. So I'm closing the bug report.
