Internet logging for all browsers and VM?

[timswim78]

I have a mac running OS X and XP (under VMWare). As far as browsers go, I've got Safari and Firefox installed in OS X. In VMWare (XP), I've got Chrome, IE, and Firefox. I'd like to keep a log of all the web sites that I visit and the time and date that I visit them. Rather than aggregating the histories from these 5 browsers, I would like to keep track of everything in one log file. Is there a way to do this in software with OS X, or will I need a router-based solution?

Thanks!

I think you'll probably want a router based solution, simply for the overhead needed to track all of that data. Not only that, but I doubt that an OS X app can track data being sent on your VM (although I could be wrong).

EDIT: I did find a solution called, SLife, but it's $5/mo... which is a bit much for just internet logging, but you can check it out if you want.

Cool, thanks for the info. At $5 month for the service, I think that a better option would be to use a router-based solution. Can DD-WRT routers do this?

Just setup a proxy server in one of the systems and point all of your browsers to it and then make sure to archive the logs.
