Ntop taking a lot of disk space

[netsysadmin]

Hello,

ntop is taking about 195GB of disk space on my pfSense box!
Can anyone help to solve this issue?

Is it a configuration problem?

Thanks.

Disk usage is currently 92%!
Will soon run out of disk space.

Any help please?

I don't know ntop well but consider uninstalling it, rebooting and see if that clears it up. If so reinstall ntop and start over.

If you're a Windows guy (like me). Install WinSCP on a pc, and connect to the pfsense box and look around at all the folder sizes. It's probably a bunch of logs taking up the space.

OK, I've uninstalled ntop, but it did not delete the files in /var/db/ntop/rrd/interfaces/*/AS/.
That's where the files/folders that take up most of the disk space are located.

Can I delete the /var/db/ntop tree manually?

[netsysadmin]

OK. I'll try to delete the /var/db/ntop tree manually.
Hopefully there will be no problem.

Everything looks fine after the deletion.
Will try to re-install ntop and see.

Is it OK to choose all the interfaces during the configuration?
