IP/Process Restrictions

[Daniel]

Hey all,

1) Anybody reccomend any program to give a bandwidth chart of ingoing/outgoing bandwidth for a sepcific IP on my box? So that we can moniter the amount of traffic to charge users on the system.

2) Anybody got a program that allows you to restrict the amount of processes a user can run for lengthy periods?


Thanks in advance :)

Do you want to chart all usage, or just web traffic?

If it is all traffic, you should be able to modfiy MRTG to track individual IP traffic: http://www.mrtg.org

Yes - Its all that goes through it - I have webalizer/plesk to track web things, this is more for shells, IRCd's and such.


I'll take a look at that now, thanks.

The best bet, depending on the Os you are using, for restricting processes, and memory used is to create system jails:
