There seem to be lots of them available so can anyone suggest one that would be suitable for this application? Ideally it would have minimal configuration requirements.
Because you have a switched network, your debian box will not be able to see traffic corresponding to the other machines on your local network.
Hadn't thought of that, means I probably need to rearrange things and temporarily use my Debian box in place of the router. Having said that, I found that ntop was available by apt-get, which has almost no configuration needed except to set the net device and admin password. It seems to do what I wanted and is reporting traffic that Windows is generating, however considering the above it shouldn't be seeing that traffic. Maybe my switch is really a hub in switches clothing (cheap Belkin 5 port)? Thanks for the advice. Glenn -- Glenn Ramsey <glenn(a)componic.co.nz> 07 8627077 http://www.componic.co.nz
