So I'm now running ntop-3.2rc2_fc4-1.i386.rpm from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=17233&package_id=13248&release_id=147104 [watch for the wrap] and its installed okay with no problems and is running okay [so far at least]. It does give warnings about reading certain files and the ntop.conf being renamed, just something to bear in mind :).
