Re: [PLUG] How to check bandwidth usage remotely via command-line?

Guys,
~    I don't know if I'm missing something in this conversation, but
couldn't he just use iptraf with some filters to show only the
incoming bandwidth of that one connection?  From my understanding, if
you setup a filter criterion in iptraf's menu, it's a globally-applied
filter.

iptraf works very well and gives you all sorts of nifty info,
including a mac-level monitor.
