Line #497 is puzzling. I'm guessing 'hostname' is a dummy variable,
because it doesn't work as a literal. Yet the text refers to it
as though it were a literal, ("_the_ URL...").
I'd include a patch, but am uncertain as to the intended meaning:
1) "the URL format to access ntop is http://hostname:3000/, where "hostname"
is the system's name, e.g. http://192.168.1.1:3000.
2) "the URL to access ntop is http://localhost:3000/";
...or something else? Most users would prefer #2, because (in most
xterms) they can click on the URL to open it.
Hope this helps...
