Why? Simpler and faster to run a loop for *log and 'analog +a $logfile' with a simple shell or PERL script. I had 3 versions. One with full hosts on, the second with full hosts off for sites with more hits, and another for full hosts that would do directory stats deeper for the personal sites. A flat file is used for each site to get the values for the site, recipient, type of report, etc. The original post used one big log which could either be parsed or just run Analog for a directory report and give the totals, but personally I'd rather use the virtual host directive. Customers also like when they can have their own error page another reason for using virtual. ErrorDocument 404 <user's_dir>/error.html Otherwise the servers plain generic is used and you give the customer that warm, fuzzy feeling. ;) Jeff Mountin - Unix Systems TCP/IP networking mountin.man@mixcom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
