I'm not clear on what you're asking. You want to monitor bandwidth from each machine, from each user on each machine, or traffic from different users only to/from the server? Or something else? Are you trying to controlling bandwidth centrally or from each node? – belacqua Mar 14 '11 at 23:06

If those don't do what you need, ask again with your refined requirements and I'm sure I or someone else can offer more suggestions. – belacqua Mar 15 '11 at 04:31
