I'm finally starting to get caught up at work and have time for flow-tools
development again. 0.68 has new features and the patches I've digested
so far (still 5 months behind on the flow-tools mailing list).


New features:

Updated variable substitution and included flow-rptfmt in the distribution
which allows flow-report to be used easier from the command line. The
default stat.cfg allows flow-report to be used similar to the older
flow-stat.


    % flow-cat . | flow-report -vTYPE=ip-protocol -vSORT=+octets -v\
      OPTIONS=+names -vFIELDS=-duration

#  ['/usr/local/netflow/bin/flow-rptfmt', '-f', 'ascii']
ip-protocol flows   octets      packets
tcp         1962045 25848369456 31686827
udp         315279  4644130206  7853648
gre         355     36646889    65755
icmp        68231   12011825    161405

   Prefix preserving IP address anonymization with CryptoPAn.  See
   http://www.cc.gatech.edu/computing/Telecomm/cryptopan/.  64
   rounds of AES per flow really slows things down, next snapshot
   will have a faster implementation.  Enable this by specifying
   --with-openssl to configure.  Tested with OpenSSL 0.9.7d and
   OpenSSL 0.9.7b.

   flow-rptfmt - format flow-report CSV output to ASCII and HTML.
   see http://www.splintered.net/sw/flow-tools/docs/flow-rptfmt.html

flow-rpt2rrd - converts flow-report CSV output to RRD's. If
you're trying to do RRDtool with really large flow data sets
this should be a lot lot faster than processing the flows in
perl. See http://www.splintered.net/sw/flow-tools/docs/flow-rpt2rrd.html
You'll need to install http://sourceforge.net/projects/py-rrdtool/


   flow-log2rrd - converts STAT lines generated by flow-fanout
   and flow-capture to RRD's.

0.69 will have outstanding patches from the mailing list in the next
few weeks, NetFlow V9 support will be after that.
