Hi Richard, maybe this will help you in the future: http://linux01.gwdg.de/apt4rpm/ Apt4rpm is a meta directory of rpm packages. It allows you to easilly install new software and takes care about dependencies between packages. Apt is a command line tool, but with Synaptic you also have a nice MMI. Here are the results from apt search: picasso:/home/jmau # apt search network traffic iptraf - TCP/IP Network Monitor libnids - A Network Intrusion Detection System library mrtg - The Multi Router Traffic Grapher netacct - Network Accounting ntop - Web-Based Network Traffic Monitor routed - Routing daemon which maintains routing tables tleds - Indicate network traffic via Keyboard LEDs traffic-vis - Network Traffic Analysis Suite vtun - Virtual Tunnel Client/Server xnetload - This program displays network traffic and uptime for the network Installation with apt is easy,just type "apt install iptraf". All dependend packages are downloaded and installed. That's it. Regards Jean-Marc Am Sonntag, 14. Dezember 2003 07:46 schrieb Richard Atcheson:

Thanks Patrick. I was looking for something like that and it is really interesting/neat!
For anyone else just learning how, you can create a link to the file and set it to be opened in a terminal and by user root and simply clicking on the new Icon will get you going nicely
Too bad someone hasn't come up with a list and short description of all the neat things on the SUSE distro without having to go to YAST and look at each description.
Linux can be a bit overwhelming with all the things available.
Thanks again. Richard
