Best thing you can do is install squid and then set it up as a transparent proxy and use itpables to route all prot 80 traffic through it. ntop and mrtg will not give you the level of detail you are after on there own however when used with squid youll be able to get all the info youll ever need on what clients are doing what. Unless the clients you wish to minito are SNMP enabled you not going to able to get much data form them using mrtg et al also you will not just capture net traffic but all lan traffic will also been shown so again this would not be close to what you need. defianltey look into squid and transparent proxying. ______________________________________________ No trees were harmed in posting this message.
