ipaccounting



What is it? Do I need it on my system (desktop)?

I've been getting emails from cron every six minutes and finally got
sick of it:

/usr/sbin/fetchipac: Cant read "/var/run/ip-accounting-rules" -
ipacset not run?

===

If I run ipacset, as the thing suggests, I get the following:

main:~# ipacset 
/usr/sbin/ipacset: cant read "/proc/net/ip_acct" - exit

Thanks for any input!
