Hi, I had the issue and could find google entries for that writing that it is usual that while running, the statistics of the network traffic displayed via ifconfig could be reseted easily by itself and is "normal" to have an overrun around 4Gb-s, where the counter starts again from zero! I read suggestions for such a case to not to let you fooled by ifconfig and use vnstat or similar, measuring perfectly. Any ideas, how "normal" this kind of statistics zeroing on SUSE 10.0 is and how to avoid that? Is vnstat displaying well in that case, when the ifconfig-counter goes to zero several times? Extra question to vnstat: does anyone know, what happens e.g. when changin' the system time via ntp? Does vnstat give a correct output also if not only few seconds, but minutes were corrected? I mean e.g. now it is 20:21, so used internet for 22 minutes and then let's say via ntp the time will be set to 20:11. Then there will be ten more minutes in the hour, alltogether 70 minutes, ruining likely all of the stats. Maybe overwriting them, because there will be this time twice 22:21 and so on. Maybe getting too late already, thanks for any thoughts, Pelibali
