Figure 2-9 shows the screen you’ll see once Debian downloads and begins installing
ProFTPD. ProFTPD can be run either standalone or as a service from inetd. For secu-
rity reasons, we’ll run ProFTPD in standalone mode.
Next, add the following lines to your /etc/proftpd.conf file:
DefaultRoot ~
IdentLookups off
ServerIdent on "FTP Server ready."
Now, as we have done with other processes, restart ProFTPD using this command:
# /etc/init.d/proftpd restart
Summarizing Your Web Statistics with Webalizer
Webalizer develops statistical reports for web server logfiles. You can use it with a
standard web browser, and it produces detailed, easily configurable usage reports in
HTML format.
The Debian project includes Webalizer in its stable repositories, so you can install it
with this command:
# apt-get install webalizer
During the installation you’ll need to verify the installation directory (/var/www/
webalizer), the name to be used in the titles of the statistical reports (you could spec-
ify your domain name, for instance), and the location of the web server’s log file
(which on our system is /var/log/apache/access.log.1):
Which directory should webalizer put the output in?
/var/www/webalizer
Enter the title of the reports webalizer will generate.
