Um, I think I kinda understand now. Basically all connections are logged
into mysql, and whether "bytes" mean upload or download depends on how I am
querying ... if that's right, then my problem is what's the meaning of
ip_src and ip_dst. i.e. what's src and what's dst?

I understand that for *every* single tcp/ip connection, the packets uploaded
will be logged in a DB row, and the packets downloaded will be logged into
another row, is that correct ?

If so, why are the results from these queries different:
select distinct ip_src from acct_v2;
select distinct ip_dst from acct_v2;

one returns 67, the other returns 257! I expected them to be equal, since
each connection will be logged as both uploading/downloading?!

Any help is highly appreciated till I get my head around this.
Stability is awesome compared to ntop (piece of pure crashing shit). Thanks
