I'm trying to weight up whether monthly d/load caps by various ISPs
would restrict me. (Firstly I'm assuming when they say 1Gb they mean
1000*1024 bytes and not bits?) More importantly, what's the best way to
track amount of data downloaded per session? For anybody that's
interested the main thing I'll be doing is running xterms on remote
machines pointed back to mine at home but I've not idea how much traffic
X involves.
Thanks!
I didn't really answer your main question, sorry.
There may be a deb package one of the guys here can tell you about, but
it would probably need to run on all your machines. The easiest way I
can think of to monitor your WAN bandwidth usage is to reset your DSL
router and do it from there. Most of these have some sort of "global
stats" page that will count your total incoming/outgoing IP packets.
