Post by: krustykev on November 17, 2002, 08:16:52 AM

does anyone understand the information in ntop? it there a program that will show me what traffic is going through my computers in a network and where it is going and how much of it there is?

I've got some better tools that consist of:
nmon - Network protocol analysis
cmon - Network connection monitor
bmon - Network bandwidth monitor

Here's the delimma, I can't figure out what the heck the name of the program is, I compiled it from SRC and it's just a few binaries that function without problems.  I guess the best I could do (after I've googled, sourceforged, and freshmeated the binary names) would be to .tgz these binaries, compile for i386.

Let me know if you want them,
Nathan

I would be very interested, but only if you are willing to make a very, very detailed howto or handwalk me though how to compile them and such :-)
