More detailed networking info needed

[Alex Iribarren]

Hi,

I've had similar requirements for some of the stuff I've done. I had to
write a script to log all network connections and produce output like this:

Aug 20 14:21:19 host03 netlog: sshd[3199]: TCP connect start
29.38.40.128:22 <- 11.127.2.21:30471 (uid=0)
Aug 20 14:23:19 host03 netlog: sshd[8150]: TCP connect stop
29.38.40.128:22 <-> 11.127.2.21:30471 (uid=0)
Aug 20 14:25:03 host03 netlog: wget[2749]: TCP connect start
29.38.40.128:3023 -> 209.85.129.104:80 (uid=123)
Aug 20 14:25:03 host03 netlog: wget[2749]: TCP connect stop
29.38.40.128:3023 <-> 209.85.129.104:80 (uid=123)

I did it by probing several low-level kernel functions and I had to use
lots of C code to extract the information. I'd be very interested in
seeing if you come up with a better way of doing it.

Cheers,
Alex
