You can see these counts by typing iptables -L -v, and you can zero them by using -z. You can set them to some number you like with something like -c 10 1000. To create a rule that does nothing but count, just create the rule without a target. Packets that match will increment the counts but continue down the chains as if they hadn't matched (didn't jump anywhere, so where else would they go?) something like iptables -A INPUT -s 10.10.1.31 -i eth0 and that's it! Then use iptables -L INPUT -v and pay attention to the columns listed on the left. good times, Vineet -- Satan laughs when # "I disapprove of what you say, but I will we kill each other.# defend to the death your right to say it."

Re: per IP billing
I have ip tables running and i did a test with the -c flag but i get the following response. proxy:/home# iptables -A INPUT -s 10.10.1.31 -i eth0 -c ACCEPT iptables v1.2.4: -c requires packet and byte counter What am i missing ? where do i get a packet and byte counter ?? Marcel Antropov Anton wrote: The simplest way - is to LOG packets using IPTABLES. My friends from Internet-provider are doing so. Another way is to use proxy-servers (like SQUID). Know this is a bit off subject but dose anybody know any good programs to use for monitoring Megabytes per IP address. What i want to do is have a LAN and be able to get data on how many MB each host downloaded for billing purposes.
