WTD: Web Page Traffic Monitering Software

[Capt Fiero]

Ok I really dont even know what to ask for. But what I am looking for is a program that I can install on my server to moniter file requests and hits to my server. I hate geocities but they had a built in moniter that told me all sorts of info.

IE OS that the person used, what time they came to the site, and watched all sorts of cool info.

I could sort it by time, date, month. I use apache for my server software, running Windows XP Pro as the OS.

Does anyone have an suggestions. I need something that is very user friendly, becuase I am still pretty new.

are you only using html ? or something other it can be done with any type of web pages, im just currious. :)

I dont really understand what you are asking. I do use HTML for my pages, uhmm but that is a given.

Even a program that can create an order of my apache log files. Becaues I hate dealing with the text interface of apache. I am a sucker for a good gui.

But back to the question.

I use Analog X Net Stat Live to moniter total inbound and outbound traffic, but it only lets me know the amount of data and not what data is moving. I want to find out what files are leaving and where they are going. Could someone even give me an idea of what type of program I should be looking for.

I use LogNut (http://www.parkenet.com/apl/LogNut.htm).. just feed it your log files, and it will go through, and give you a ton of statistics and graphs. I believe apache records bytes in and bytes out in the logs, if so, then it'll give you a bandwidth tally aswell.

You don't need to have a program actively monitor traffic since the web server *should* log all those details. Just feed your logs to something like su root says.

well I don't use this, but mbently does, samurize it can do the graphs and stuff on your desktop.
