PPPstat is an easy-to-use console utility to see the summary of dial-up connections from your unix system. Uses logs of pppd.
PPPstat is designed to provide a statistic on dial-up Internet connection. PPPstat project uses system logs of pppd daemon, that's why it would be useless if one would use something else to connect via PPP.
Here are some key features of "PPPstat":
store info about connects in separate file;
after getting info about connects to Internet from logs, PPPstat can group them:
by user, who starterd pppd or by ISP in any combinations;
by period: day or mounth;
to make output more pretty, there is a configuration file which contais info about IPs of ISPs' modem pools to print ISP name instead IP;
count costs of connects.
What's New in This Release:
make use of autotools. Now installation is corresponds GNU requirements
output completely changed. Hope, it would be more convinient. Inspired by ppplag
location of file, where syslog stores its messages, is taken from its config file
added script for cron (/etc/cron.weekly/pppstat) to keep /var/log/pppd.log up to date, independently of program usage
added ukrainian and russian translation
