Hi Gooroos this is going to be easy (I hope). i have 3 questions about Gkrellm and my home network which a friend setup as I am a newbie to Linux. I have 2 workstation pc's connected to cable internet via a dedicated gateway pc. The network functions fine and there is no problem there. The gateway computer is running Mdk8.2. I have installed Gkrellm on that pc. The pc is setup to provide network access without the need to go into KDE or GNOME. This allows maximum ram for squid as the pc is a grandaddy(so my friend says). Q1: Is it possible to have Gkrellm run at startup and display on the graphical login screen without going into kde? Q2: If yes, is it possible to display THAT specific Gkrellm on my workstation PC (either separate to, or as a plugin [???] to my workstations Gkrellm) so that I can see ALL the traffic through the gateway PC? Q3: Can Gkrellm (Gateway) RECORD how much traffic is passing through, record logs (scenario: a dispute with my ISP regarding charges for downloads)? I looked for a gkrellm NG and couldnt find one which surprises me as it is a fantastic proggie without parallel (even in WinDoze) IMHO. It beats the crap out of MyVitalAgent which only monitors the pc's connection and not the pc itself. You cant even play music or check/monitor emails with it (how primitive compared to the functionality of Gkrellm). Similarly, I couldnt find n e answers to my question either thru the net or with my friends. Please help. I thank you in advance! cheers Anthony -- *remove ---=> !!!NO!SPAM!!! and !'s to reply directly *would prefer all replies to NewsGroup so that others can benefit from your advice. TIA =8^)
