Hi

I was wondering if it's possible to track the amount of traffic a user is using with SSH? And also for the processes that he is running on the shell.

Regards, Niklas

Perhaps using MRTG, though I'm not sure.
And also for the processes that he is running on the shell.
# ps waux | grep <username>

I was more thinking like something for the DA traffic accounting for a user.. Like if the user is allowed 5GB traffic / month, it will also count the traffic he is using on the shell
 
There's no way to track that; even if you could force your users to login through their own domain name and no other, the logs only track login time; they do not track logout time.

And there's no real way to track the data the user causes to be moved.
