Hi Linux Gurus

Recently, I was made aware of a proggie called OptUse5. The program is only 
of use to Optus CableNet users in Australia.

This proggie monitors netstats and makes an estimation in real time as to 
what your netstats will be for the day. It apparently can also warn you 
when usage goes high.

Unfortunately, it is a windoze proggie only. Does n e 1 know how I can run 
it on my Mdk 8.2 box? I know nothing about programming ... and WINE i have 
had no success with at all.

Here is the URL of the proggie: http://members.optushome.com.au/intabits

Maybe the program can be adapted for linux use. I dont know whether the 
author would allow it or not, but, it would certainly help us linux users.

I just wonder, if I can get it to work on my linux box AND if it was 
installed on my internet computer, whether it would monitor ALL usage on 
our home LAN (3 pc's)????

I would be interested in your views and thank you in advance for your 
thoughts,

regards
krONik
