NTop on 2.0 RC-1 or 2.0 Beta5

Macom2007

Hi,

I installed the nmap package and when I go to Diagnostics -> NMap, I'm redirected to the dashboard page. When I run nmap from the shell, I get the following error:

/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libpcap.so.1" not found, required by "nmap"
I'm running the following version:

2.0-RC1 (i386)
built on Mon Feb 14 02:12:45 EST 2011

Any suggestions ?

Had a similar library issue with bandwidthD, maybe the below will help..

pkg_delete bandwidthd-2.0.1_4
pkg_add -r bandwidthd

Yes, this seems to be a pretty common thing. Somehow at the moment the package system on pfsense is not properly synced with the pkg system for freebsd. I believe the main dev team for pfsense is aware of this and its in the cue to be fixed.

In the interim, you can find out what packages are installed on your system by typing in a shell


#pkg_info
...
...
bandwidthd-2.0.1_4  Tracks bandwidth usage by IP address
...
...

Look for the version of nmap you have installed in the list that you end up with after running pkg_info.

Then type


# pkg_delete nmap_#.#
# pkg_add nmap

where #.# are the previously installed version.

This will install all the required dependent libraries and packages…probably. It doen't work perfectly for ntop, but has fixed several other packages for me.
