Package: ntop
Version: 3:3.3-11+b2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

ntop init script parses "ifconfig" for valid interface names.  However, 
ntop allows "none" as an interface name, signalling that no interfaces 
should be used for direct monitoring.  Patch below adds a check for 
"none" as the interface.
