Hello,

This is my first post. After many searches on Google and this mailing list, I 
couldn't find what I was looking for, so I tought I'd better ask directly. 
Maybe I haven't searched far enough, and maybe I should have posted on 
flowscan's mailing list. If so, please pardon me.

Here is the situation : 

I have a computer configured as a bridge sitting behind my internet gateway :
LAN <-----> eth0-[ BRIDGE br0 ]-eth1 <-----> GATEWAY
This computer is running flowscan, flow-capture and fprobe, sniffing on eth1.
The flow files are created and I can read them with flow-cat, flow-print & co.
flowscan/cuflow also works like a charm, creating "dst" and "src" rrds files 
for each configured service.

So, what's the problem ?

Well, I would like to be able to use flow-tools (flow-print ?) to see inbound 
AND outbound traffic for each flow. I guess it's possible, since 
flowscan/cuflow creates "dst" and "src" rrd files with "out_bytes" 
and "in_bytes" datasources in each.
BUT... flow-print only shows "octets" without differentiating "output_octets" 
and "input_octets".
I read that I had to sniff on both interfaces to get this kind of information, 
but how do you explain that flowscan is able, for each dst and src, to get 
out_bytes and in_bytes ?

This probably is my ignorance/misunderstanding in action. Please don't let me 
stay in that state.
Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Guillaume Van der Schueren
