Well, there are a bunch of things that could go wrong:
Is it running?
Try telnetting to the ntop port, what exactly does it tell you?
Are you trying from the same machine? If not, can you access the ntop
machine?
Can you telnet to other ports on the ntop computer?
Are you using ipchains on that computer? Are you blocking yourself?
Are you running portsentry which is blocking access?
Were you running portsentry before and it dropped route to you?
Do you have a buggy version of ntop?
All I can tell you is that I got the rpm's from, I think, the ntop web page
a while ago, installed it on RH 6.1, started it up using port 3000, and it
worked fine.
