One thing I can't figure out about ntop is how to make it collect data
and store it for the long term. It seems that ntop will not monitor
data unless I am staring at the screen. Am I missing something

This is a problem that I am also interested in, but I have not put in
the time to solving it yet. I am thus keenly interested in the outcome
of this thread.
