There are tools available to do this - essentially though, networked traffic is already logged on the individual machine.

Network Monitoring/ Tracking
by Steve Wright - EliteUKServe 27 Apr '04

27 Apr '04

Hi, A local school we work closely with has asked us if we have any thoughts on the best way they can go about monitoring the network more closely as it is becoming quite a beast. They're are asking for the ability to set thresholds and alarms and the such down to individual PC's (probably best done at the switch) and are also after trying to analyse the type of traffic coming from machines. Any thoughts on this would be much appreciated, or any systems that people have in place in their school already and wouldn't mind discussing I would like to know about. Thanks, Steve Wright EliteUKServe EMail: steve.wright(a)eliteukserve.net Tel: +44 (0) 870 250 7611

No it's not a hoax. Many schools have been asked, and it has been discussed on various schools lists at length. And indeed on this list. But given the OFT investigation into Public Schools it's not possible to discuss financial implications. And I can see why RM (as M$ resellers!) might not know ..... -----Original Message----- From: adrian.wells [mailto:adrian.wells@sidcot.org.uk] Sent: 23 April 2004 09:08 To: SuSe Subject: [suse-linux-uk-schools] Office of fair trading - School agreement For those not on the RM list I thought this may be of interest to some...

How do I kill kde and return the server to just a login so that I can save on resources. I have never done this as I am a child of the gui and it is killing my web server on the net. Paul
