Guys,
Thank you very much for your answers. That confirms what I thought but it's nice to know for sure.
I've looked into spacewalk last year and again yesterday. Well... time to run some tests. I might build some test machines in next few week and will decide then.
We can't buy licenses for all the redhats we have. (Sorry RedHat!) and Centos is not an option.
Many thanks again for your input.
Kind Regards
Chris

ACCOUNTING(1) SMPPPD ACCOUNTING(1)
NAME
accounting - calculates statistics about your internet connections
DESCRIPTION
accounting is a simple program to calculate statistics about your internet dial-up connections that are started and stopped by either ifup
and ifdown or by a frontend to smpppd like cinternet , qinternet or kinternet.
OPTIONS
These options are recognized by accounting. If a long option shows an argument as mandatory, then it is mandatory for the equivalent short
option also.
-l, --last=NUM
Only consider the last NUM connections.
-a, --after=DATE
Only consider connections started after DATE. DATE is a date with optional time in ISO 8601 format, e.g. `2002-12-24 20:15:00'.
Note that a date without time is treated as if the time is 00:00:00. Hence connections started on the specified date are consid-
ered.
-b, --before=DATE
Only consider connections started before DATE.
-u, --user=USER
Only consider connections started by user USER.
--this-year
Only consider connections started this year.
--last-year
Only consider connections started last year.
--this-month
Only consider connections started this month.
--last-month
Only consider connections started last month.
--this-week
Only consider connections started this week.
--last-week
Only consider connections started last week.
--today
Only consider connections started today.
--yesterday
Only consider connections started yesterday.
--per-year
Show summaries on a per year basis.
--per-month
Show summaries on a per month basis.
--per-week

-c, --connections
Only list the connections but do not show provider statistics.
-p, --providers
Do not list the connections only show the provider statistics.
--connection-format=FORMAT
The names of the columns to print in the connection list. The names must be separated by a comma. Known column names are time,
type, provider, user, status, duration, rx, tx, rxtx, averx, avetx and averxtx. Each name may be appended by a colon and a number
indicating the width for the column, e.g. provider:25. The value will not be truncated if the width is too small.
--provider-format=FORMAT
The names of the columns to print in the provider list equivalent to the --connection-format option. Known column names are
provider, number, duration, rx, tx, rxtx, aveduration, averx, avetx and averxtx.
--local
Display all dates in local time. Also interpret dates on the command line in local time. This is the default.
--utc Display all dates in UTC. Also interpret dates on the command line in UTC.
--script[=STYLE]
Format output for script. Known styles are c and sh.
-f, --file=NAME
Use a different file with accounting information.
--report-errors
Report erros in the accounting file.
--version
Show program version and exit.
--help Show help information and exit.
NOTES
All informations are only obtained through the accounting log. Hence the informations, esp. the data volume, of currently active connec-
tions is not accurate. If you want the know the status of a connection, use ifstatus or a frontend to smpppd like cinternet , qinternet or
kinternet instead.
The user field is empty for connections started by a remote frontend of smpppd.
BUGS
Not yet implemented for ISDN (ippp).
FILES
/var/log/smpppd/accounting.log
File containing accounting information.
