Hi,

I have two desktops(WinXP) and one notebook(Gentoo) connected
to cable modem via a Gentoo box.

How can I monitoring the traffic of each desktop or notebook ?
I have mrtg on my gentoo server, but seems I can only configure
it to monitor the in and out through the server.
but I really want to see the fraction of each box inside my home network.

nagios seems too professional and complicated for me,
Any package easy to set up ?

Thank you!

regards,
Lingyun

Search the mrtg man pages and do***entation for promiscuous mode and set it
up for your internal interface. This way, your nic will receive every
packet transmitted through your local network - at least if you don't have
a learning hub. Those things remember mac addresses for ips and route
traffic for a specific ip address only to the port where the ip is
attached.
