Heads Up: If you're looking to stay ahead of inappropriate Internet activity, this cool tool has just been updated.

The RTMonitor program scans the most current common log file of BorderManager server and creates the following statistics in real time:

User IP addresses.
NDS user name (if Proxy Authentication is in use).
Last web site visited by the user (will see IP address if Transparent Proxy is used instead of HTTP Proxy).
Last time this site was accessed in the Main window, and the last twenty URL's visited in the History window, per user.
Common loading of the user from the moment of start of the program.
Current loading of the user for the current time cycle of the program.
HTTP status code of the last HTTP packet.
Start time of the program.
Number of users accessing the Internet through BorderManager HTTP or Transparent Proxy (3 - for the demo version).
Waiting time.
Average HTTP loading of the server for 5-minutes.
Name of your NetWare server.

New features: version 4.0.3

Refreshed some codes from the new NDK (September, 2004).
Changed the installation program of RTMonitor.
Added the Whois command to the Main and History windows.
Added the Refresh button in the History window. This command forces RTMonitor to reread the common log file without waiting for the next pass.
Mouse's doubleclick added to History command.
Enhanced NDS information mode.
Changed the algorithm of defining name in Define name mode for pure IP networks. For this operation you must have operator rights on all NetWare servers.
Added automatically saving and restore of size of the main window from the previous session.
Changed HELP.
