I would like to use a BSD-style UNIX box to capture the data, create hourly or daily log files and possibly maintain a display of the most recent half-dozen records. I've not found anything appropriate as I look through the various source indices. Could anyone provide me with a pointer to data collection software such as this? Thanks for your consideration.
