It provides a daemon (nacctd) that logs all traffic passing the machine it runs on (similar to what tcpdump does). . Capability is provided to associate traffic to slip/ppp users in case you run a slip/ppp server. > CPU & RAM would also be nice, but I assume linux won't let a user > totally take over the machine's resources with default options. man ulimit?
