Hi David I have found the problem now. It turned out to be a localization problem which explains why it works when you reboot the computer. When run at startup the ntop command will have LANG=C set.
But you probably have some other locale. I have uploaded a new version now with LANG=C set in the init script. It is not a perfect workaround, but good enough currently as ntop do not have any translations anyway.
