[Flow-tools] new install

[Joe Loiacono]

Kirk,

Once you get flow-tools going, you might want to consider FlowViewer
( http://ensight.eos.nasa.gov/FlowViewer ). FlowViewer is a companion tool
to flow-tools which gives you a web interface. FlowViewer provides text,
graphing and MRTG-like tracking features.

Joe

I was using version 9 on the router. Version 9 would error out
on flow-capture so I changed the version to 5 on the router  and now I have
flows being written.

I did also disable iptables and ip6tables (?) per Craig and Joe. I will
test now if those are getting in the way too.

Many thanks to al

Kirk

  Thanks all for hearing my plight.

  flow-capture is running and tcpdump reports incoming udp packets but
  files
  are not being written in the directory specified. I am using the
  following
  command to start the capture:

  flow-capture -w /flows/mkflows 0/0/9800 -S5 -n287

  I am running Fedora 10 and am sure I am missing something simple. I am
  not
  particularly good with the Linux OS but am willing to learn. ;-)
