Search Again: Re: Bandwidth Monitoring? From: Jason Ellis Date: Tuesday, May 4, 1999 Time: 9:00:03 am Chris- Is that something that's set up on the router level? We don't have our own router, so I'm not sure we can do it that way. I agree, using log files isn't perfect, but since we don't allow anon ftp (anyone who allows anon FTP on an NT/IIS server is asking for it, in my opinion), that's not that big an issue.
