I have an idea.
Your signature describes you as "Director General" of your company. I
suggest that you hire someone who has the basic skills to make "ls -l | awk
'{print $1}'" do what it should do and give that person the task of
implementing your traffic reporting system.

Even if you execute the command in an empty directory, this happens:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> mkdir empty
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> cd empty
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/empty> ls -l | awk '{print $1}'
total
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/empty>
So _something_ is output ("total").
We are here to help you with Shorewall; not to teach you basic Unix scripting.
If you must do this type of work yourself, then I have another suggestion:
Brian Kernighan (the Father of Unix) and Rob Pike wrote their
classic book "The UNIX Programming Environment" (Prentice Hall, ISBN
0-13-937699-2/0-13-937681-X {PBK}) in 1984. You should try to find a
copy and read it. It was by studying that book in 1992 that I
took my first step to learn about Unix.
