At community centre I have a debian server that routes / filters all

easiest option?
Where I work, I've set up a proxy using squid and sarg to monitor internet useage by machine.
http://www.squid-cache.org/ �- Proxy
http://sarg.sourceforge.net/ �- Generates the useage reports
http://squidguardmgr.darold.net/ - Configures access and allow sites to be blocked if considered neccessary.
http://dansguardian.org/
IIRC I had to compile squidguardmgr for the block lists but I understand Dansguardian might be another option. �By the time I'd found that one, I was happily running squidguard.
If you set up the proxy and block access to the internet for services not going through the proxy, you should start to get a good idea of the traffic.
Also at home I have one computer that uses between 2GB and 3GB every
day. Is there any easy way to limit this to 200M a day and then just
cut off the internet for the next 24 hours?
Kids?
3GB to 200M will be a big drop - good luck.
Dansguardian again?
