For all you genius'

Hi, I've noticed recently that when I put my v11.10 Ubuntu PC into hibernation (rather than switching it off) vnstat (using vnstatd daemon in the background) adds 4 gig to both the received and sent totals for that hour (coincidently giving an upload speed far in excess of that that my internet connection is capable of).

vnstat is version 1.11-1

Has anybody else seen this behaviour and is t

I have installed vnstat and now I would like to have statistics in my browser like this:

You can see working script here. Where can I get that cgidemo script?

Hi all,

I have started to work on bandwidth monitoring because of the way I am charged for inbound and outbound data on my web server.

I have vnstat configured to watch eth0 which is my public facing interface and managed as eth0 and eth0:1.

There is nothing explicit about this in the man and it doesn't accept aliases as an interface specification.

I'm using vnstat together with conky. To show the monthly traffic I'm mixing vnstat and grep to find the month. The command to collect the data is

${execi 3600 vnstat -m -i wlan0 | grep "$(date "+%h")" | awk '{print $3 $4}'}

but the problem is that vnstat returns the month in English (Dec for December) and date returns it in Portuguese (Dez for Dezembro).

Doing some reading on this excellent forum:

"vnstat" seems to be just what I have been looking for! (thanks paddy!)

But, this is what I get:

tourdog@PJK3:~$ vnstat -u -i wlan0 Error: Unable to read database "/var/lib/vnstat/wlan0". Error:

I am moving my server to new hardware and onto the new LTS, building it from scratch.

I really need to take my vnstat data with me, and I read somewhere you can export the database and import it somewhere else, which if I remember was only a matter of dropping the database files into a folder.

I would like to have transmission-daemon and vnstat automatically run at startup.

So, I have already been using vnstat monitoring tool to keep a track of my Internet usage stats for some time. Recently, I started looking for a real time network bandwidth monitoring tool.

For those missing network applet.
