Ntop is NOT gone! (pfsense 1.2.* instruction for installation)
-
As I promised:
HOW TO install ntop on pfsense:1. obtain alt_pkg.php and ntop.xml and pkg_config_for_local_ntop.xml
2. goto Diagnostics/ command prompt, upload alt_pkg.php (notice "uploaded file to /tmp/alt_pkg.php")
3. in execute shell command type: mv /tmp/alt_pkg.php /usr/local/www
4. go to goto Diagnostics/ command prompt, upload ntop.xml (notice "uploaded file to /tmp/ntop.xml")
5. in execute shell command type: mv /tmp/ntop.xml /usr/local/www
6. in browser goto YOUR_PFSENSE/alt_pkg.php, click install
7. check "local xml base url (127.0.0.1)", click define
8. in big field bellow "define" button, copy-paste contents of pkg_config_for_local_ntop.xml, click save.
9. go to system-packages, check if ntop is avaible.
10. install it, after installation go to Services-Alt Package Manager, check "Standart pfSense 'XML Base URL'", click Define (so "packages" will behave as usual)
11. go to diagnostics->ntop settings, provide password, select LAN interface, click Change.
12. click Access ntop tab.
13. Enjoy.Where to get alt_pkg.php?
Go to http://diskatel.narod.ru/ , in line with "Alt package manager" click rightmost link "скачать PHP"

Special thanks goes to Serg Dvoriancev for his AltPkg
I've tested this on 3 pfsenses: 1 virtual and 2 real (our company's router and one of our client's), all worked ok.
Should work on 1.2.1 too.PS this instruction provided AS IS, so if you brick your pfsense - you was warned.
PSS little update…

Hi.
Anybody knows why ntop package no more listed in "Available 1.2-RELEASE packages"?
I've even setup new pfsense machine for test, but there is no ntop too.UPD: in 1.2.1 there is no ntop too.~~

Hi.
Anybody knows why ntop package no more listed in "Available 1.2-RELEASE packages"?
I've even setup new pfsense machine for test, but there is no ntop too.Just wanted to confirm the same observation. Actually I noticed it was missing a couple of days ago, but assumed it was due to my fiddling(learning) with my pfSense box. Without doing a new reinstall, cant say for sure its not showing up for me because of something Ive done to my setup :P
-
Without doing a new reinstall, cant say for sure its not showing up for me because of something Ive done to my setup :P
I've just used Virtual Server for that =)
As I found, some ntop packages still available at address http://files.pfsense.org/packages/All/ntop-3.2_?.tbz
where ? is from 1 to 3, but I don't sure this is THAT ntop which was available.
Also, it looks like there would be need some untrivial actions to integrate it to pfsense.
looks like this is not we need.
Also, as I found, ntop not only not listed on http://pfsense.com/packages/pkg_config.xml, but also there is no configuration file in http://www.pfsense.com/packages/config/ntop/ntop.xml. Of course it can other name for it, but… -
Can anyone answer this? I was looking to install it on Monday, and noticed it was not available in the packages.
I love this monitor, and don't think I could live without it!
Would anyone know of an alternate way I might be able to get it?
-
YES, GONE ON MY NEW INSTALL, AND I USED THAT PACKAGE DAILY
-
Looks like there is no ntop in 1.2.1 too….
( http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,11955.0.html ) -
Any update on this? BandwidthD and Darkstat don't offer anywhere near the stats that ntop provides.
-
looks like we're forced to integrate ntop to pfsense manually.
I've got one or two installations with working ntop, so in couple of days I'll upload xml and other needed files.
Any help will be appreciated. -

Great work Pan_2! ;D
Thought Id give it a go myself to test. I followed your instructions but when I get to the part to check for ntop in packages, I receive this error "Unable to retrieve package info from 127.0.0.1. Cached data will be used."
At first I thought I might be my squid/squid guard. So I try to stop the service completely to see if this resolves the issue, but alas I still get the same error.
I have searched through the forum for this exact thing, which gave me a couple of threads relating to this topic which dvserg has worked on. I followed the several hints from those threads but I seem to be stuck as to what else to try. I checked and rechecked that all the three files and code are in the right places too.
Anything else anyone can suggest? thanks.
Edit: I just wanted to add that for some reason the pfsense box is unable to resolve the 127.0.0.1 address. Although I cant think of the reason why this is so. Which would explain my error above. I am able to ping 127.0.0.1 from the shell. Very odd indeed.
-
From the CVS logs:
reason for ntop package removal: * librrd_th.so.2 not being installed * package conflicts with base rrd package version (previous version)
And it doesn't work right on FreeBSD regardless, due to threading bugs it'll chew up 100% CPU pretty routinely.
-
Is this a problem with the current version of the FreeBSD ntop port, or just the version of ntop that pfSense was using?
-

This goes then you don't change to local package info in right order in AltPkg or local package list is not written succesfully.
try to go to http://yourpfsense/packages/pkg_config.xml , if it shows up - just try to reboot, change to default package source - save - change to local. should work someway.
Also, try to do this on clean install (in virtual machine for example), at least you will be sure you are doing all right.@cmb:

well, works fine in at least 4 installations. magic, I suppose =)

Unable to retrieve package info from 127.0.0.1
last note - pfsense is very "picky" about pkg_config.xml, maybe you just try copy it again.
or save through "edit file" menu -

or save through "edit file" menuI tried your suggestions on my own before I posted the problem on here but no matter what I do I got the same result. Going to http://yourpfsense/packages/pkg_config.xml works as expected.
I stopped trying to get ntop to work since we were advised with the issues it currently has. Id rather not risk using it, but thanks for all your effort to get it working =)

For me it worked as expected after changing GUI protocol to http and port to 80. But it added an entry to globals.inc ($g["xmlrpcbaseurl"]= "www.pfsense.com"; ) preventing GUI from working anymore. But after removing this with vi all works, and I have ntop again.
-
Does not work on 1.2.1 due to missing libraries (freebsd noob here).
-
Hey,
too bad about ntop. I needed it and could not find it and thought I was going crazy.
So I found this string but can't seem to get ntop working.
I keep getting the same error "Unable to retrieve package info from 127.0.0.1. Cached data will be used."My version is 1.2-RC4 (Tue Jan 15 23:05:07 EST 2008)
Hope ntop gets working again sure could use it. :-(
Bye

Hi,
I've just tried again on a completely different PFS and got the same error about Local cache could not be retrieved. I did everything like as instructed accept for the uploading of the two files witch I did via scp but I checked everything and it shouldn't make a difference. But I still keep getting the same error. Is there something else that I should try when I switch to local a reboot or something else to get ntop going?
Thanks for the help and bye
-
Hi,
I finally figured out why I was not able to add the package.
I'm running a transparent proxy and so I had to move the web interface to a different port (81).
So I disabled the proxy and changed back the administration to non secure port 80 and it seems to work like a charm.Hop this helps someone.
Best regards and bye
-
It's wonderful. Thanks you so much. I installed ntop successfully. :D
-
Thank you pan_2. ntop installed and running.
-
ntop is in the 1.2.2 package list and beyond so this thread is now moot. Do not follow these instructions with 1.2.2 and beyond or you will absolutely, positively break something.
