try creating a transparent proxy ... redirect all request for port 80 to your proxy server (ipchains).... and then analyse the proxy server logs ... The existence of the proxy is transparent to the user

Like I mentioned earlier, use junkbuster. It works on all platforms.

And it's nice! Exactly what I need. Thanks, Philip.
(Yes, I know it doesn't cache, which squid -- which I was using -- does. I don't care.)

Get junkbuster. It's written in C, runs as a proxy on your machine. Is GPL'ed. Currently used to block advertisements and in fact anything you don't want to waste bandwidth on, but easily enough modified to do what you want.
Remember the unix philosophy - keep it simple. If it's already been done, don't redo it, just make it better.

when you are talking about monitoring a client, You must surely be having some kind of proxy server running. Every proxy server maintains logs, and you can monitor the logs based on each "login name" to see what each person has used the internet for. Why do you need another program....
