R: Log analysis requirements

What i want to say is:

iptraf is very cool because it is lightweight. Even on a 486 it works perfectly without problems.
The great thing is to summarize and manage the log files without accessing a database. Try to think to a poor pc (linux gateways in a lot of companies are old stuff because the "save money" politics) running iptables mysql iptraf and other stuff. Not so great.

I only need to summarize the bytes sent and received because there is a company here in Italy that needs that type of information.

Anyway I'll post my here my stuff later.

Oggetto: Re: Log analysis requirements

Personally, I'd like to see something that would parse the logs into a 
database (MySQL in my case) and then do the analysis from there. Maybe 
that's a separate project though, as I imagine some/all would prefer to 
perform the analysis without needing a DB involved. Then again, I've 
just started using IPTraf and haven't even looked at the log output, so 
maybe this doesn't even make sense at all...
