Available documentation
OK, we'll be the first to admit that documentation for ntop is
sparse. If you're a user of ntop and willing to contribute ANYTHING
in the way of documentation, then send it along - we'll be happy to polish it up and distribute
it.
Documentation for ntop is available in the source distribution,
here at ntopsupport.com and at many sites around the web.
This page is a centralized clearing-house of available, free information.
Hosted here at ntopsupport.com
ntop FAQ - converted to html
Here is an automated
conversion of docs/FAQ into one largish HTML page.
ntop man page - converted to html
Here is an automated
conversion of ntop.8 (the man pate) into an HTML page.
On your ntop instance
(starting with version 2.1.54)
There is a help link (look for HELP or "
"
on the About tab), with a copy of the FAQ and pointers to the mailing lists.

The source file, docs/FAQ is also a fount of knowledge.
Elsewhere on the web (other links are in the right hand column of this page)
There's now an ntop WikiWikiWeb - collaborative documentation project -
here.
So, you don't understand
RRDs
and can't fathom how ntop uses them for persistent data storage?
You are not alone. It's probably the most common non-compile
problem posed on the ntop mailing lists.
For the answer, pull down the .pdf,
rrdandntop
from SourceForge and look it over.
ntop.org
Has some documentation. BE CAREFUL - a lot of it is old, outdated junk.
ntop mailing lists
These are the location to ask and answer questions about
ntop.
There are two lists, ntop which
focuses on using and installing ntop
(including bug reports)
and ntop-dev which focuses on future
development and programming how-to questions.
For each list, there is a main page which has signup information
and an archive of past messages. The archive at gmane is searchable.
