-= netacct-mysql =-

Oh well at last some news. New web interface rewritten from scratch by Stoimen Popov has taking shape these days so anyone interested in testing it can be downloaded from download section of course. In development version can be downloaded via SVN: $ svn checkout svn://svn.horizon9.org/netstat More info at forum.

I've integrated one of my other projects b00ble - simple text search engine in this site forum so it can be searched. I apologize for not responding on many mails and messages but the work consumes almost all of my time. I hope this search helps a little bit and ofcourse I can promise that I will try to answer on more questions and merge some new code to the next release ..

Vlado Tzanev has ported netacct to work with PostgreSQL support. The only difference between 0.78 and 0.79rc1 is postgresql support so this release is for PostgreSQL people .. configure script is a bit hack and need to be rewriteen for postgresql .. please read README.1st and README.PostgreSQL for more info

Xerx (Vlado Tzanev) has made OpenBSD 3.6 package of netacct-mysql. It is available in download section
NetBSD 2.0 package is made by me but I have not tested it so please report any problems
Russian Documentation was translated by friend of mine (Vladi) and his mother who is russian and corrected by people from our forum. Enjoy!
