Здравствуйте, ALT.

Собрал для себя softflowd. Вроде бы даже даже делает вид, что
работает, правда при сборке выскочило кое-что (вроде ен смертельное).
Если надо --могу опакетить:
===
checking for struct sockaddr.sa_len... no
checking for struct ip6_ext.ip6e_nxt... yes
checking for library containing daemon... none required
checking for library containing gethostbyname... none required
checking for library containing socket... none required

Welcome to softflowd, a flow-based network monitor.

Introduction
------------

softflowd listens promiscuously on a network interface and semi-statefully
tracks network flows. These flows can be reported using NetFlow version 1, 5 
or 9 datagrams. softflowd is fully IPv6 capable: it can track IPv6 flows and 
export to IPv6 hosts.

More details about softflowd's function and usage may be found in the
supplied manpages, which you can view prior to installation using

/usr/bin/nroff -c -mandoc softflowd.8 | less
/usr/bin/nroff -c -mandoc softflowctl.8 | less

If you are in need of a NetFlow collector, you may be interested in 
softflowd's companion project "flowd" (http://www.mindrot.org/flowd.html). 
flowd is a NetFlow collector that is maintained in parallel with
softflowd and includes a few handy features, such as the ability
to filter flows it receives as well as Perl and Python APIs to its
storage format. NB. You don't have to use flowd: any NetFlow compatible 
collector should work with softflowd. An example Perl collector is included 
for testing purposes as collector.pl, but it doesn't yet support NetFlow v.9

выкиньте эту бяку, она уже лет 6 не обновляется и давно заброшена.
Используйте ipcad + flow-tools.
