Topic: httpd monitor

[Filip Atanassov]

Is there a tool to monitor the active httpd connection?

Thanks,
Filip

Try "tail -f /var/log/httpd/access_log"

You can use tail -f in any of the /var/log/httpd files.

Thank you.
I was thinking about  a tool to display in real time the active http connection.

tail -f constantly polls the file looking for updates, leave tail -f running and as new connections are made and written to the access_log they will be displayed on your screen.  You can also tail -f /var/log/secure to keep track of SMTP, POP3, FTP, and Telnet.

Thanks,
Nathan

Have a look on my statistics page (chapter "Statistiques de mon serveur Apache"):
http://www.grand-pa.dyndns.org/divers/statistiques.html

All these tools are in french, but you can find them in english.

There is also an e-smith contrib of awstats (http://awstats.sourceforge.net/), but i find it too long to process the results :

The advantage of this contrib is that it is included in e-smith-manager
