Hi,

I'm desperately trying to set up a simple form of ip accounting on my gateway.
Here is the configuration file I use for MRTG:

### Interface 2 >> Descr: 'eth0' | Name: '' | Ip: '172.30.200.98' | Eth:

Well, I get a logfile /usr/local/httpd/htdocs/mrtg/192.168.0.103_2.log (I 
know, it's not the real IP, I did smoe cut&paste) and I guess that the line 

1114706701 2416198468 3950555553

is the time and the number of Out and In Octets.
Hm, those numbers were bigger yesterday evening (?).

Can someone of you recommend a little script that does nothing morgen than 
send me and email every morning, containing the amount of traffic (in and 
out)?

I already tried RTG and bbstatus, but RTG wants a special version of MySQL and 
bbstatus requires PostgreSQL - I just want two numbers every morning.

Thanks a lot for every help/hint.

Stefan
