iptraf is working, but not completely:

1. Serge (?) changed WORKDIR from /var/local/iptraf to /var/iptraf and it is 
good solution... but in /var automatically is created directory local/iptraf 
but not iptraf. I don’t understood way /var directory tree creation. Maybe it 
is my problem only -- I have mounted in /var my existing hdd partition; maybe 
if /var is on ramdisk it is ok; but if not... there are no place to save 
config and filters until mkdir /var/iptraf

2. binaries are directed to /usr/bin as for iptraf as for rvnamed but TARGET 
setting in Makefile is left as /usr/local/bin and in this directory iptraf try 
to find rvnamed (and rawtime), so if we configure i.e. Reverse DNS lookups to 
ON, we obtain “Can't start rvnamed; lookups will block”. We must start rvnamed 
manually before iptraf every time. I hope, for this is sufficient to change 
TARGET settings in Makefile.
