In reply to bruno. Concerning: /lib/modules/2.6.32-042stab120.11/build: No such file or directory I just got the same error on Centos 7. Apparently "uname -r" output mismatches the name of the kernel files the netatop needs (some minor version number differences). Here's the solution:

# yum -y install "kernel-devel-uname-r == $(uname -r)"

On Ubuntu 18.04 the following changes/additions where necessary:

# apt install build-essential

"Config" file is now in /usr/share/atop/atop.daily.

@Bruno,

Why you compiling from source atop? when you can easily install from default repositories using your system package manager APT or YUM.
