Hello,

How can you tell who (which account) is using high bandwidth. Which command in Linux is best to tell?

I'm not sure I'm answering your question, but w shows the users and what are they doing at the moment.
Also ps axu shows all processes and their owners.

This is a good question. I know it can be done with iptables but I don't know of any way to do it with a standard linux install.

If you're interested in looking into doing it with iptables just do a search for "iptables bandwidth monitoring" into freshmeat.net or sourceforge.net and it should find some scripts able to do it.

why dont you do a search for squid

its a proxy which you can customise and see what is being done by whom
