      Say someone is downloading from your http server, is there possibly a way to list the ips that are connnected and using how much bandwidth they are using?

              There's a relatively new package:
              rate  This package adds a table of realtime bandwidth usage by IP address to Status -> Traffic Graphs

              Check it out.

                Would be nice to have the top bandwidth users at a glance, tested rate but it only show one line, with the public IP of the firewall, not the real users inside… Should I change somewhere the interface being monitored?

                I'm using transparent proxy by the way...
