SMB Traffic Analyzer is a project with the goal make it possible to monitor and statistically view the data flow on Samba Servers. Rather than a network capturing tool, Traffic Analyzer utilizes the Virtual File System Layer of Samba, and produces a SQL enabled storage, making it easy for the users to generate statistics in general. Furthermore, client programs are being developed, structured on the SQL database, which produce full reports of the data flow and even monitor data flow in real-time.
