        It depends on what exactly you intend on tracking.

        For traffic accounting, the best would be netflow (see the doc wiki for details), failing that, something like bandwidthd. If you want to know the websites that people visit, you'd have to run them through a proxy like squid.

        Lots more info on the wiki and on the forum.
