btw. did you try iptraf? can you save the configuration 
options? i'm not sure were the problem is...

 

I never had a chance to use it.
Probably somebody on the mailing list is using it.

Hi, The iptraf documentation: (/iptraf-
2.7.0/Documentation/messages.html)

   " IPTraf cannot create the configuration file. The most 
likely cause
   of " this is that you didn't properly install the " 
program, and the
   necessary directory /var/local/iptraf does not " exist. 
Can also be
   generated if you have a disk problem or if you " have 
too many files
   open.

I create the directory and it works well: ~# 
ls /var/local/iptraf iptraf.cfg ~# But I have another pb. 
when I launch iptraf, I get the error: Warning: unable to 
tag this process The documentation says:

   IPTraf normally tags itself when it runs to prevent 
multiple
   instances of the statistical facilities from running. This 
message
   means the program was unable to create the 
necessary tag file. This
   may be due to a bad or improper installation. Try 
running the* make
   install* procedure or the * Setup* in the distribution's 
top-level
   directory.

But I don't know what does mean "tag"; and where 
should stay this "necessary tag file"?

Thanks

Florent Martineau
