Site Statistics
Fooling around with analog, trying to get it to ignore certain visitors (i.e. me), and certain files (i.e. ones that only I access). I did find some interesting information though. For example: since August 11, I've had two page requests using Safari, 5 referrals through google.com, 5 through google.ca (one or two of those may have been me), and 1 through google.fi and google.be.
As for the google hits, I figured I'd put up the search words people are using (I've lumped ones that include 'cache' into the larger category):
4 referrals: pictures august 2003 blackout from space 2 referrals: this space intentionally left blank 1 referral : mod_dosevasive 1 referral : hp pa risc motherboard power connector 1 referral : timber billy hickey 1 referral : movabletype speedycgi 1 referral : signs of failing motherboard 1 referral : itâ%80%99s wrong to wish on space hardware
It would seem my ramblings about computer stuff are getting me hits from people looking for information on various hardware and apache issues. (Although those blackout pics definitely helped too.)
If you want to take a look at the stats, feel free. They should (at least temporarily) be located here.
Update: I've still got people coming to this site looking for the pictures. Since they've now been bumped off the main page, you can find them here.
I haven't looked into playing with mine too much, but making it ignore me would be pretty great. How did you do it?
Well, there's two main things I have set up to exclude myself from. First I have it set up to exclude referers that are my own server, so it looks like this:
REFEXCLUDE http://heimdall.shacknet.nu/* REFEXCLUDE http://192.168.1.1/* REFEXCLUDE https://heimdall.shacknet.nu/* REFEXCLUDE http://heimdall.shacknet.nu:443/*
Then, I have it set up to exclude any requests made from my home computer, so:
HOSTEXCLUDE 192.168.1.3 HOSTEXCLUDE loki.ratatosk.yggdrasil
(It's considered best to include both the IP and any names you may have defined for it. Really I should have this defined first, as it does look at the rules in order while processing.)
If you're going to include the domain report, I also suggest that you define a DNS cache file and use DNS write. (This will resolve all DNS entries when building the page and write them to a file for later reference. It can get kind of slow when a huge chunk of them need to be resolved though.)
DNSFILE /etc/analog/dns.cache DNS WRITE
If you want to exclude certain pages from showing up, there's apparently multiple ways. I personally use FILEEXCLUDE which excludes any requests that match the regex that follows. (May just be a simple regex, not sure what all it supports). So, I'm using:
FILEEXCLUDE /dir/*
to exclude a bunch of directories that are accessible only from my home computer.
There's tons of documentation for the program at it's homepage but frankly, lots of it is carp.

Those all go in the config file. (Obviously)

Thank you very much, good sire!
(And I figured about the config file)
Well, I believe you can toss it some of the options related to the various reports on the command line.
For some reason I doubt those ones can be.
