Accounting with low traffic bug

wk_03
Hi,

I know that there is in the KnownIssues with ID104 already noted the bug, but will there be a solution soon?

The solution to switch accounting off gets me no information of the traffic the provider will charge me.
On the other hand, we as a small company have no traffic at night and over the weekend and it is annoying to get a mail every 20 minutes.

Is this also the reason why I get no accounting report?

Thanks
Walter

    wk,

    login as root and exclude the network accounting
    daemon from system monitoring.

    "touch /etc/no-superdaemon/nacctd"

    Select the internal network interface for
    acoounting and query the internal network.
    When querying the internal network on the 
    external (masquerading) interface the firewall
    produces no accounting data because the packets
    are already translated into the external
    IP and the query doesn't match anymore!!! 

    read you

    Oliver,

    your hint worked fine for me and the mails stopped.

    After a restart it started again because the touch-command is not in the startup routines.

    Shall I write a short script for /sbin/init.d/rc3.d or do you recommend another place to put the command.

    Thanks
    Walter
