I have a friend on Satellite internet (it's that or dialup) and they have a hard cap on the amount of data you can download and upload via the system. Does anyone know of a system that we can put in place which will allow her to monitor and control usage of the internet connection on a per-computer or per-person basis. I know I could put something together by dropping a linux box to use as a router in place and I am seriously considering doing this as it will also allow us to put in a transparent proxy and caching DNS server to help reduce bandwidth used. In their first month of usage, they hit the bandwidth limit and there are penalties for doing it more than once.
