That would be great.  Right now though, I'm playing with our Red Hat 7.2
discs trying to get ntop to work with them. The service starts, but
nothing appears on the webpages generated for port 3000.  So, I think I
would still like to try suse 7.3 if I can't make any progress tonite. 
Thanks for the offer Joe, I may have to take up on that to give the ntop
package in 7.3 a shot.
