Usually that stuff is placed into a text file (so to speak) and then squid or alternative programs parse the logs. I know that SCO Unix server has this capability. Surprisingly, though, depending on traffic, this log file can be rather large. While in college we did a C program that could parse the logs to find only symbolic domains, list the top 20, and give you quite a bit of data. As per something off the shelf or something on board Linux, you've got me. :-) Hope this helps. http://www.covenantdata.com Where data becomes information!

Hi All, I have a need for a service or software that will monitor and track outbound HTTP (web) accesses, and report what pages are being visited. I know that Squid theoretically can do this, but it seems like overkill for this application. The user could care less about caching - they just want to monitor what URL's their staff is visiting. IS squid the best option, or is there something else that would do a better job? Part of my concern is that the machine they have to run this on does not have a huge amount of memory, and I understand Squid can be a memory hog.
