Hi Roy,
I'm working with wwwstat-2.01 (which is the latest release from
what I can tell) to help with our Server stats here at hbs. First off I
wanted to say that it's a great product - thanks for placing it in the
public domain, you did a great job.
I'm running it on a Sun Ultra with Solaris 2.5.1 and was getting
uppercase domains in the final report as well as lowercase, so that I
would have an "EDU" and an "edu" entry in the "Transfers by Client Domain"
section. I looked around in your code - and noticed that you had a line
that was making sure domains were lowercase (tr/A-Z/a-z/). Upon looking
closer I found that the "resolve" sub is called after this and realised
that it must be returning the domain in uppercase - I don't know if this
is platform dependant, (ie only solaris?) but the obvious fix is just to
repeat the conversion:
#APPROX LINE 1218
if ($LookupDNS && ($dvalue = &resolve($host)))
{
# add here
$dvalue =~ tr/A-Z/a-z/;
...
Just wanted to let you know - thanks again...
