  IPTraf needs to refer to the terminfo database
in <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>/usr/share/terminfo</TT
>.
  If the supplied executable program fails with <TT
CLASS="COMPUTEROUTPUT"
>Error
opening
  terminal</TT
>, your terminfo database may be located somewhere else. You can
  control the terminfo search path
by using the <TT
CLASS="ENVAR"
>TERMINFO</TT
> environment
  variable. For example, if you're using the <B
CLASS="COMMAND"
>sh</B
>
or <B
CLASS="COMMAND"
>bash</B
> shell, and
  your terminfo database is in <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>/usr/lib/terminfo</TT

  (typical for Slackware distributions), you can use the commands:&#13;</P
