Looking forward to coming to UEA again next Sunday, presume we can park near the venue to download computer, monitor etc and then, probably, go back to the car park. Hope to be there before or near 2 pm.
Thanks

Yep. When you arrive, tell the guys at the security barrier that you're going to Union House to drop stuff off, and they'll direct you.

All,
As you should now be aware we are just seven days away from National Linux day (NLD). Mark, you should hopefully have received all the CD's. Has this happened? I have a list of a few people who can help with installs but could do with more. Also I have a 2 willing volunteers for the biscuits (Jo and Steve) :o)
What is peoples opinions of the poster Jenny made http://argosaa.tripod.com/alug/ ? If people think its ok Please can we advertise it a bit more?
What is the progress of the debian mirror server? will there be one on the day?
If you plan on coming could you let me know so I have an idea of numbers?
And finally, Gareth have my T-shirts arrived?
Thanks
D

Hi,
I should be around and able to help out with installs (Debian a speciality, but I can muddle through with most others). I'm sure I could help out with guided tours of the pub, too.

It's fine by me, but it might be a good idea to have a monochrome one for easy printing. We should probably put a time on there, too. It might also be a good idea to lob the ALUG logo on it (but then I would say that, having designed it ;-) Is it worth putting a contact phone number on there for people to ring for more information? I'm sure a YAC number could be pointed at various volunteers.
Andrew.

I realise it's a bit late in the day (only just looked), but I can't believe so many people failed to notice the grocer's apostrophe in the possessive its... It doesn't sit well with the word "professional"...

Hi everyone.
We are about to put a website online for an important customer but we want to monitor the bandwidth usage on a monthly basis and bill them accordingly.
Has anyone any ideas on how to do IP Traffic monitoring? We don't have access to the stats on our primary router (basically our upstream won't give us the data for some reason) so I just wanted to put some kind of packet counter in..
Any ideas or package recommendations? I've looked at sourceforge but am not sure of the products I'm finding there. I want a standalone product that doesn't look like a beast to install and dumps the data in a nice format for sticking into a database.
Cheers.

It's in the Apache access log. Everything that is sent and how big it is.
Not perfect; it does not include the overhead of setting up connections, but it is a start.

Hmm. That's where I was heading. The extract of the numbers is trivial and would give me 99% of their traffic.
I'll try to knock something up in Perl that whacks the data into a MySQL database directly. Could be an interesting project.
Cheers.

If you only want apache stats, then take a look at webalizer, it might do what you want, if you want IP based accounting then I am with Adam, MRTG is the best (open source) thing I know of...

MRTG will let you know how much bandwidth is being used but can be a real pig to setup and you will have to configure SNMP on the customers box (or your router (yes I know the upstream won't give the stats)) anyway take a look at http://ee-staff.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/mrtg.html

might help if i put you in the root of the doc tree! http://ee-staff.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/
also on the same site is RRDtool which I have heard good things about http://ee-staff.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/rrdtool/

I can probably provide a hard disk with a mirror of Potato and (I think) woody, slink and testing, this will be courtesy of Zeus as they are providing the disk but I will need a machine to put it in (the disk is ide) which I guess has NFS SMB FTP access available.
Also has anyone spam^H^H^H^H posted in uk.local.east-anglia and uk.comp.os.linux etc? as there is not much time to get the word around now.
