Thanks for those links. I'm building this server from scratch, so kernel recompiling is fine. But will these tools be able to monitor the bandwidth of individual users on the server itself? I realise you grab the apache logs to monitor bandwidth for web servers, but what about other services, say ssh, scp or wget? Is there an way to log the total amount of data passing through an interface? Is this possible?
