Did you receive any errors when installing? Did you read the INSTALL 
file that came with the source? Did you install this from source? Did 
you use a slackware package for this? If so did you have all the 
prerequisite programs installed? If the file doesn't exist then perhaps 
the directory couldn't be written to and you will have to 'chown -R 
nobody /usr/local/var/ntop' to change the ownership of the whole 
directory soit can be written to.
