AWStats

Jul 19, 2005

The AWStats tool graphically generates advanced Web, streaming, FTP, and mail server statistics. This log analyzer works as a CGI or from command line. It shows your log information in graphical Web pages and uses a partial information file to process large log files. It can analyze log files from all major server tools, such as Apache log files (NCSA combined/XLF/ELF log format or common/CLF log format), WebStar, IIS (W3C log format), and other Web, proxy, WAP, streaming servers, mail servers, and FTP servers.
