Version 0.2 of my accounting patch for linux is available.
It provides detailed ip accounting per process and user
in contrast to what the kernel has built in since ~1.1.69,
which provides only a rough overview.
>From the README:
INET accounting for Linux
=========================
This patch logs internet traffic and accumulates it for each
process run. This includes both incoming and outgoing TCP and UDP
data. Only outgoing ICMP data is logged. Data going over RAW
sockets is not logged (only tools like tcpdump use them).
This differs from the ip-accounting provided with the standard
linux kernel in that you get a detailed listing of which user
is responsible for what traffic. This is really useful if
you have to pay for IP traffic.
You'll get accounting information like this:
(time) (from) (to) (bytes) (uid) (command)
