I am a newbie to the LTSP and have a query as regards the monitoring
of network traffic between the server and diskless w/s. I need to be
able to monitor the time and date a user logs on to any w/s and what
time and date the user logs off from the w/s. I am not that interested
in how much traffic passed through the connection. I also need to be
able to export this data to a MySQL database where I can then work out
prices, costs, ect for viewing on a web page.
Does anyone out there know of a program that will enable me to do this
from the server. Purpose for all this is to monitor sales, ect in a
cyber cafe environment.
I would suggest using squid (proxy server) to force all new web requests
to your local web server. On that web server, run your php script that
will register the session and the user that logged into the server into
your MySQL database.
Plus with squid, you can better monitor all your Internet usage.
