The general consensus was to download it from www.sunfreeware.com. However,
there is no Solaris 2.6 ntop package there. They have Solaris 7/8. The 7/8 versions
fail on Solaris 2.6 with errors related to libcurses.so.1; even with the correct
LD_LIBRARY_PATH you get a wrong version error(s). I also searched other sites on
the net: http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/solaris/sparc/ no luck.

I tried from source (on 2.6) but it failed. From http://www.ntop.org. On 2.6 when it
compiled.. it cored a few times. Got to try it again... it compiles clean on Solaris 8!

Other people wrote asking if I could forward the package once found. Someone did
send-me a working Solaris 2.6 pkg format copy of ntop. I would hate for the person
who provided a 2.6 version to become the source of unsolicited emails. For those
people that asked, I forwarded the package. The version install under /opt and it
works (in this version you must user ./ntop -w 3000; unlike in Solairs 7/8 versions).
