A patch for Net Accounting Daemon which adds support for logging network traffic on a MySQL Server.

You can control nacctd with so called signals. Here is what the signals do (one might call this abuse of signals:

SIGINT ends daemon
SIGTERM ends daemon
SIGUSR1 increases debugging level
SIGUSR2 turns off debugging
SIGWINCH prints some kind of version id
SIGTSTP disables writing to file
SIGCONT enables writing to file

The last two (TSTP and CONT) are useful for an automated archival of the logfiles without terminating the daemon. Just send a SIGTSTP before moving the logfile and send a SIGCONT when you are done.

What's New in This Release:
modifyed process.c netacct.h
Moved build process to use configure script ala GNU recommendations
now all compile options are available as configure options except HASHSIZE which i think is for advanced users only
