(This machine is being updated soon to = latest -STABLE). I had one once on another machine years ago but I = forget the name. It basically just gave me a text file log with = aggregate data to each IP address on the machine over time.=20 Does anyone have any recommendations? I do not need web access to the = data or fancy graphs or anything. I just need a simple way to see how = much incoming traffic to each IP I get during a certain time period, = written to a text log. I have been trying to build things like ntop and stuff but due to the = age of this machine's installation that has not been possible due to = ports being too new for it and problems installing latest tools (port = errors in patches etc).
