1. Traffic Accounting with Linux IPTables - good coders code, great reuse

I had noticed that when listing the existing rules, iptables would display packet count and total byte count for each rule. I thought, yeah, why not use this for accounting? So I did. I created an empty rule (which gets passed through the firewall) for each IP address of users and a script which extracted the byte count.
