âAs ntopng has not been part of the kali default package repository for
quite a while (ver 2.4, I believe) I tried to install it based on the
instruction here:

http://packages.ntop.org/apt-stable/

with the kali version being:

â$ sudo uname -a
Linux kali 4.12.0-kali2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.12.12-2kali1 (2017-09-13)
x86_64 GNU/Linux

âwhich implies Debian Jessie (right?)â ...

so then:

$ wget http://apt-stable.ntop.org/jessie/all/apt-ntop-stable.deb
$ dpkg -i apt-ntop-stable.deb

which ended with:

$ sudo ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
*ntop-stable.list*

and

$ sudo less /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ntop-stable.list
*deb http://packages.ntop.org/apt-stable/kali-rolling/
<http://packages.ntop.org/apt-stable/kali-rolling/> x64/*
*deb http://packages.ntop.org/apt-stable/kali-rolling/
<http://packages.ntop.org/apt-stable/kali-rolling/> all/*

then back to instructions here: http://packages.ntop.org/apt-stable/

$ sudo apt-get clean all
$ sudo apt-get update

*Err:4 http://packages.ntop.org/apt-stable/kali-rolling

Any idea? Is source the only option, then?

Replying to my own email - tried next the kali-rolling option, with the
same results:

... starting with:

$ wget http://apt-stable.ntop.org/stretch/all/apt-ntop-stable.deb
$ dpkg -i apt-ntop-stable.deb

... all the way to ...

$ apt-get update

Did from source, eventually. Lots of dependencies, but it worked, in the
end...

Thank you,
***Stefan

Hi,
You can try to manually install the packages and the required dependencies
from http://packages.ntop.org/debian/jessie/x64/ntopng/ . We do not
officially support kali.
