RE: Bandwidth Monitoring



Thanks for help, I do have one other question.

Best method to monitor email traffic by user?
I currently use qmail and vpopmail for sending/managing email accounts.
If I need to monitor their usage by user what is the best method???

Thanks again,
Jeremy C.

Hi!

If you want to track http traffic per domain you could also look here:
http://www.cohprog.com/mod_bandwidth.html

For IP-based accounting I would bet on this horse:
http://www.pmacct.org/
(Under heavy development - but it seems to work, even as agent for snmp)

rgds,
Andreas
