ntop -w 0 -W 443 HTTP disabled, HTTPS enabled on the common port.
Certain sensitive, configuration pages of the ntop web server are pro-
tected by a userid/password. By default, these are the user/URL
administration, filter, shutdown and reset stats are password pro-
tected
and are accessible initially only to user admin with a password set
during the first run of ntop.
Users can modify/add/delete users/URLs using ntop itself - see the
Admin tab.
The passwords, userids and URLs to protect with passwords are stored
in a database file. Passwords are stored in an encrypted form in the
database for further security. Best practices call for securing that
database so that only the ntop user can read it.
There is a discussion in docs/FAQ about further securing the ntop
environment.
