What tool or process would you recommend me ?

Any help would be appreciated.

Warm Regards

Hi,
my 2 cent:
Web statistics per user might be done by an authenticated proxy like
squid and scripts.
mail statistics per user might be done by the logs of your imap/pop3
server and scripts.
MSN: i have no clue for per user logging.

=46or MSN you might want to look at Aimsniff. I use it for AIM but it w=

MSN I think too. You will want to check your computing policies, Aimsni=
ff
grabs everything into a database. So you have complete records of all
messages. I have used it at a couple of companies and I currently use i=
t with
my teens.

With the kids it is under full disclosure and only used as a check on b=
ehavior
issues. They balked at first of course but they are okay with it after
assuring that we would respect their privacy unless there was a real ne=
ed. In
the 3 years that it has been running we have only had the need a few ti=
mes.

I think grepping from iptables -v will do. Separate chains for separate=

protocols, then you can even build some RRD graphs out of it.
This is the "in-house" approach.

I've used ipfm in the past (http://robert.cheramy.net/ipfm), it works
ok. It should know about pcap filters. It has some sort of html
generator available somewhere too.

Cheers,
Adrian.

If by "per user" you mean "per PC", you might want to look into
pmacct:
