ndt-users list created

[Herbert Souza <>]

Debtor for the aid, but already had decided the problem.  I am pupil of the UNIFACS (Universsidade Salvador) www.unifacs.br , I am working in a project for the RNP (National Net of Education and Research) www.rnp.br , and am testing tool NDT. Still I did not place a DNS for the address, more is possible to have access way:

http://200.128.80.173:7123

OBS:  If possible it visits the page of my project!    http://www.nuperc.unifacs.br/gtmed/

Thank's!!!

Hi Chia-Hung;

I'm the developer of the NDT tester and I got this via the bounce mechanism on the mail server.  I'm in the process of moving this email list to the server, and I've cc:ed it on this reply.

To answer your question.  The NDT server uses a packet-dispersion algorithm to gather the bottleneck link information.  It fork()'s a child process to handle the measurements via the libpcap library routines.  This means the NDT 'web100srv' process must be run as root, to allow it raw access to the local NIC.

There are 2 possible reasons you can get this message.

1) your server has multiple interfaces and the NDT server is monitoring eth0.
        Use the -i dev option to specify the correct interface
        for example "/usr/local/sbin/web100srv -i eth1 -a >& /dev/null" tells the
                web100srv process to monitor eth1 instead of eth0

2) the web100srv process is not running as root.
        Change your startup procedure to have root start the web100srv process

I hope this helps.
