Actually I prefer to the list because I think the discussion of hosting
websites and what it means is something that a lot of people don't
grasp.
I have always heard good things about pair.com and they
responded quite quickly to emails I have sent in the past. But I
don't have an account there.
But if we don't know how they set you up (and there are many
ways) then we cannot help.
Try this at the command line when you logon:
find . -name "*log*" -print
it might lead you to your logs.
If you were at iserver you would log in via a telnet and then do this:
cd www/logs
and that would put you in this directory:
/usr/local/your_name/usr/local/etc/httpd/logs/
the www is a shortcut.
You could then harvest the logs.
While speak of logs, how many people use the extended log? I
found this to be very useful with Webtrends (rather than writing a
separate referer log):
CustomLog logs/ref_log "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %s %b
\"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\""
You can customize your log output in the httpd.conf file.
And about redirects you can do this in your srm.conf file
# Redirect allows you to tell clients about documents which used
to exist in
# your server's namespace, but do not anymore. This allows you to
tell the
# clients where to look for the relocated document.
# Format: Redirect fakename url
Redirect /eslgames http://www.rede.com/resumes/index.html
Redirect /scream http://209.150.130.132/usl/
Redirect /usl http://209.150.130.132/usl/
Redirect /samples/movies http://www.rede.com/movies/
I generally prefer to use .htaccess files in a directory. But I deleted
eslgames and usl in the above cases. I wonder about efficiency of
looking in an .htaccess vs. doing it here. I can't tell anydifference.
