I have a homenet connected via Linux to the Internet. Kids (mine and
the neighbors) and use our 3 machines to surf the web routinely. The tools
I use are ipfwadm and Squid. Squid is a proxy server that, as a
by-product creates detailed logs.
Below is an example of a squid log entry. If this is too detailed, there
are perl scripts that will roll this into higher level reports that look
much like Firewall 1's logs.
