Ideally it'll tell me from where, so I can look at internal abusers, or get= an idea of where hits are coming from. Off the top of my head, I can think of two tools. 1. ntop - great web interface, but I've found it unstable 2. iptraf - good curses interface, but I'm looking for trend monitoring 3. mrtg - as I'm running snmp, so I could just monitor it from a desktop running mrtg... Any other suggestions? Thanks, Mike --=20 Michael P. Soulier "Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex...
