I'm investigating to see if it is possible to create a network monitor for
SailfishOs. Something like
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobidia.android.mdm&feature=search_result

I can read simple received/sent statistics from /proc/net/dev , but it
would be more interesting to see the amount of data used per application.
This is possible with libpcap and maybe with iptables, but both require
root privileges (or at least the CAP_NET_RAW capability).

So hopefully someone can answer the following questions:
- Is there any possibility for a Harbour app to acquire extra
priviliges/capabilities ?

- If not can you think of any other way to report per-application network
statistics ?

thanks in advance,

Winfried
