Thanks for the positive reenforcement!! I'll see about the screenshots as soon as I get flowscan configured and working..... Yesterday, I was just amazed and very happy about being able to collect the raw NetFlow data from the router. Today, I will verify that all is well by pulling from multiple routers with the user I've created rather than as root, etc, etc and then I will begin configuration of the flowscan package itself which works in conjunction with rrdtools to create the graphs and html pages, etc. Thanks again and I'll keep everyone posted. cleve
