Configuring daemon capture mode settings

[Darren Spruell]

Greetings,

Is it possible to set configuration options for a daemonized iptraf-ng
instance? I'd like to run background report+logging of the tcp/udp
ports statistics and typically add a high port to the configuration
when run interactively.

Also curious to know if there is a way to specify an alternate logging
directory but preserve the default file names that iptraf-ng uses. In
other words, keep log names unchanged but write to a different
directory than /var/log/iptraf-ng.

Great project!

  When you set the ports in interactive mode, these get saved and then
used in deamonized mode too.

  No, currently iptraf-ng cannot do this.
