Best practice for PF_RING together with nProbe pro

Hi,

i'm thinking about using nProbe pro together with PF_RING (and some
taps) in a distributed network enviroment to generate netflow data
(with no-frills like VoIP/SIP monitoring etc. - just the good old
plain Netflow data ;-).

Maybe some of you can give me some advice on this:
- what's the most know to work distribution/kernel release you'd
suggest for PF_RING?
- does nProbe pro support PF_RING 4.0 in native mode?
- any other glitches i should consider when planning such a setup?

Thanks in advance,
Chris

I use Ubuntu, but it should also work on non-Debian distro

yes. Make sure you install both the kernel and userland libs (make install)
