Hi folks,
I'm looking for a program to measure the load on the network trafic created by my box.
Thanks in advance for help.

What operating system is the box running? Many operating systems have built in utilities to provide statistics on stuff like that. I think there was some command with netstat to do that....

Run Webmin from https://localhost:10000 (I think Mandrake comes with it by default) and go to the Network section.  In there somewhere, there is a bandwidth monitoring function, using iptables and another small program.  You then view these logs inside Webmin.

Is there a program available that monitors network traffic load per computer in the network?
