Posted in Development Software, Fun Stuff, Linux, Site News, Utilities
Similar to SARG, Free-SA is a statistic analyzer for daemons log files. Its main advantages over SARG are:
- faster speed
- more report information
- cross-platform work
- W3C compliance of generated HTML/CSS reports
These are the following uses with Free-SA:
- control traffic usage
- control internet access to security policies
- investigate security incidents
- evaluate server efficiency
- trouble detection with configuration
There are several new features and changes in this new release:
- · A ‘divisor’ option was added to free-sa.conf for controlling the representation of byte fields in all reports except server efficiency.
- · A ‘users’ option was added for disabling the users report.
- · A thousands separator was added to the requests field in the top sites report.
- · This release adds the ability to specify a period with words (not just with dates/numbers as before) and a wide stop/continue button to the real time report (RTR) between the table and header.
- · Stop/continue icons were added to all themes.
- · There are some speedups and and cross-platform fixes.
The application is available free for download.
