It would be nice to get RMON like statistics top-N, hosts etc eg top-protocols top-n-senders (bytes) top-n-recievers (") My employer uses a combination of Apache, Squid and TIS proxies to access the internet. We restrict Web useage to those able to supply a userid and password to Apache 1.2.x. (1.3.x doesn't offer proxy access control. Apache logs the userid of authorised proxy users). Apache then asks the Squid Cache for the page. The approaches that come to mind are Apache::Traffic Does'nt record Proxy use Seems unstable Log File analysis Analog seems to report on users Squid agent/SNMP ? Your suggestions will br received warmly, Thank you, Yours sincerely. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
