Setting internet limit to network computers

by close9us . Updated 16 years, 10 months ago

I have 12 windows computers networked and a suse 11.0 as a server distributing internet using dhcp. the distribution of internet access to the computes in the network was great.

However, I have experience exceeding monthly internet download limit so i was looking for some ways to control internet usage for my network computer users.

One of the ways inwhich i think best is to set each computers to certain internet usage limit e.g 1GB per computer to use internet.And if that computer used up its 1GB share then no internet beyond that given size.

My question is how can i set this up in suse server?
What are some of the application that will be useful to serve this purpose?

I would be very happy if someone can assist me with this?
I will try do the rest and will inform you back if i m successful

Thank you very much

Abraham
