If your system is unable to connect to the Internet, you can install packages offline as follows:
- Use a system with Internet access for downloading packages. It can be a system with a different OS with respect to the target ntop system.
- Based on the OS distribution of your target system, go to https://packages.ntop.org and move to the distribution URL. For instance for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS dev, go to https://packages.ntop.org/apt/24.04/
- Download the directory and its sub-directories. Example:
wget –recursive –no-clobber https://packages.ntop.org/apt/24.04/ - Copy the downloaded files to the the target system (or copy them on a USB stick that you can use to bring the files to the target system).
- Install the package you are interested in with the platform packager. Example for Ubuntu:
dpkg -i <package name>.deb - The above command will probably fail are there are other dependencies that are part of the downloaded files. You need to install them on the same command line. Example:
dpkg -i <dependency 1>.deb <dependency 2>.deb <dependency 3>.deb <package name>.deb - After the installation you can delete the downloaded packages installation files.
