There is another, easier way to do this. (there always is ;) )
------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED] vaibhav]$ /sbin/ifconfig eth0 | grep bytes
RX bytes:34679798 (33.0 Mb) TX bytes:8910271 (8.4 Mb)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] vaibhav]$
[EMAIL PROTECTED] vaibhav]$ /sbin/ifconfig eth1 | grep bytes
RX bytes:1922211858 (1833.1 Mb) TX bytes:497490640 (474.4 Mb)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] vaibhav]$
------------------
RX is received, TX is transmitted. Replace eth0 with ppp0 and with some
more bash/perl magic you can store these numbers in a file. But these
will be reset whenever ppp0 goes up/down so you would need to store them
somewhere.
HTH.
