winmastergames Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 I have internet at my house and im trying to make a script/website that the user has to login to access the internet and that tracks home much usage they have used but if they use like limewire it will not work without login i think this will be done using a proxy server maybe how will i go about starting this project?

ToonMariner Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 pointless project..... the user visiting your site is voluntary adn you would essentially have to parse every file they requested and alter it so that any links went directly back to your site where you would need to be able to recognize what the original link was and grab that file, parse it once more and so and so forth.... you would be better off writing a stand-alone app that the user installed on their machine that would monitor the ports and report data back to you... I would NOT use it though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winmastergames Posted November 23, 2007 Author Share Posted November 23, 2007 Well I know one place where they have a Proxy server you login to it and it monitors data usage but im not to shure if you need php for that or what sorry if it is the wrong section?

revraz Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Sounds like you are referring to people inside your house using the Internet to get out and not poeple using your Webhost. If so, this wouldn't fall under PHP stuff, this would be a Proxy setup along with Firewall tools, like Websense. I'm sure there are cheaper/easier ways, like Nanny type applications.
