Thanks to many people who kindly responded ASAP.

This was my original question..

Filtering many responses like "you can't" this is what i received..

1.- Use "nnstat".

        This program does traffic account per IP, not per user in a host.

2.- Use "NeTraMet"

        excellent program, but same as (1).

3.- Use "Socks"

        This doesn't come in pairs (ha ha). This is a multipurpose program

which is mostly used as a firewall, but can do logging(Accounting),

 Authorization and Autentification. So If you don't want the firewall part

just configure it as a bypass and log the rest.

This can be found in the web site www.socks.nec.com in which I downloaded

Socks5 version (the best) to try it out. I am installing a New machine

for this so I don't have a straight answer for my own question, but

Due to that I have received many queries about this SUMMARY, I decided to

post a pre-SUMMARY :)

I want to thank everyone who responded.

bye,bye
