You most certainly will not be able to install Report Magic without shell access, and it's not easy to do without root access. It's much easier to install both these packages on a Windows or Mac computer. > I've been downloading the logs and creating local reports using > other software.

Again without shell access, the ability to write scripts and schedule them in cron, you will not be able to do this on the server. In Windows you can do most of this with a batch file and Scheduled Tasks. If your web server uses ssh, then you can use scp to upload the files from a script. I don't know, but I'm sure there is a command-line (or macro-capable) email client out there you can use to email the reports. > Again, the whole problem is that the ISP is too busy to be bothered to > install Analog and Report Magic for us, and we don't want to run reports > locally if there's another option.

That should be the easiest way to determine what kind of problems you are going to have. -- Jeremy Wadsack Wadsack-Allen Digital Group +------------------------------------------------------------------------ | TO UNSUBSCRIBE from this list: | http://lists.isite.net/listgate/analog-help/unsubscribe.html | | Digest version: http://lists.isite.net/listgate/analog-help-digest/ | Usenet version: news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.analog.general | List archives: http://www.analog.cx/docs/mailing.html#listarchives +------------------------------------------------------------------------
