problem with sFlow collector feature

Hey Stomil,
Sorry for the delayed response.

The support for sFlow in the ra* programs is not complete, and so don’t try to use it.
There is sflow support in argus, however.  This makes sense, since sflow is really
a sampled packet technology, not really a flow technology.

Try using argus on your sflow stream.  No promises that it will work, as
 there hasn’t been a lot of testing, but it may generate some results for you.
