Hello,
     I am looking for a reliable method of monitoring/controlling the
bandwidth consumed/bytes downloaded by a specific machine on my local
office ethernet. Would it be best to have the machine in question
use one of our FreeBSD machines with ipfw configured to log packets as a
gateway ? Or perhaps is their a better method.


Regards,

Michael Slater
