Yes, but netstat doesnt have neither a web interface, neither daily, weekly, monthly & yearly stats, neither graphic statistics, and also consulting your server trough snmp each five minutes, wont use more than 1% of the procesor in less than a half of second, so your system aint going to loose any performance at all, and also you can monitor all your system like CPU usage, Memory Usage, Swap Usage, etc, etc, etc. And you can notice when you have bottlenecks, and at what time, because you aint going to be monitoring your system all the time, all the day with netstat. P.S. Its very usefull once you learn how to use it. Have Fun... Ales > I've seen snmp additions used for this a number of times, but for pure > counts, won't netstat do the trick?
