AWStats is powerful log analyzer which creates advanced web, ftp, mail and streaming server statistics reports based on the rich data contained in server logs. Data is graphically presented in easy to read web pages. AWStats development started in 1997 and is still developed today by same author (Laurent Destailleur). However, development is now done on "maintenance fixes" or small new features. Reason is that author spend, since July 2008, most of his time as project leader on another major OpenSource projet called Dolibarr ERP & CRM and works also at full time for TecLib, a french Open Source company. A lot of other developers maintains the software, providing patches, or packages, above all for Linux distributions (fedora, debian, ubuntu...). Designed with flexibility in mind, AWStats can be run through a web browser CGI (common gateway interface) or directly from the operating system command line. Through the use of intermediary data base files, AWStats is able to quickly process large log files, as often desired.

The approved original version of this diploma or master thesis is available at the main library of the Vienna University of Technology (http://www.ub.tuwien.ac.at/englweb/). Anonymity, Integrity And Reliability Issues With Open Proxies DIPLOMARBEIT zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades Diplom-Ingenieur im Rahmen des Studiums Wirtschaftsinformatik eingereicht von Christian Schmidt Matrikelnummer 0325576 an der Fakultät für Informatik der Technischen Universität Wien Betreuung Betreuer: PD Dr. Edgar Weippl Wien, 22.04.2010 (Unterschrift Verfasser) (Unterschrift Betreuer) Technische Universität Wien A-1040 Wien Karlsplatz 13 Tel. +43-1-58801-0 www.tuwien.ac.at Schmidt Christian Loitzbach 10 3240 Mank Hiermit erkläre ich, dass ich diese Arbeit selbständig verfasst habe, dass ich die ver- wendeten Quellen und Hilfsmittel vollständig angegeben habe und dass ich die Stellen der Arbeit – einschließlich Tabellen, Karten und Abbildungen –, die anderen Werken oder dem Internet im Wortlaut oder dem Sinn nach entnommen sind, auf jeden Fall unter Angabe der Quelle als Entlehnung kenntlich gemacht habe. Wien, 20. 04. 2010 (Unterschrift Verfasser/in) i Abstract An open proxy acts as a communication gateway in a network, which can be used without authentication. Client requests are transferred over the proxy as intermediary. Thus, open proxies are a significant danger for security as they cannot only intercept, but also modify data. After a theoretical introduction, this thesis focuses mainly on three research ques- tions. The first deals with proxylists which are available on Internet. What are possible attacks on the integrity of proxylists? In this regard we intend to smuggle in fake prox- ies into proxylists so that the list is useless for its users.

  • Perl by Example, Third Edition—This Book Is a Superb, Well-Written Programming Book
    Praise for Ellie Quigley’s Books “I picked up a copy of JavaScript by Example over the weekend and wanted to thank you for putting out a book that makes JavaScript easy to understand. I’ve been a developer for several years now and JS has always been the ‘monster under the bed,’ so to speak. Your book has answered a lot of questions I’ve had about the inner workings of JS but was afraid to ask. Now all I need is a book that covers Ajax and Coldfusion. Thanks again for putting together an outstanding book.” —Chris Gomez, Web services manager, Zunch Worldwide, Inc. “I have been reading your UNIX® Shells by Example book, and I must say, it is brilliant. Most other books do not cover all the shells, and when you have to constantly work in an organization that uses tcsh, bash, and korn, it can become very difficult. However, your book has been indispensable to me in learning the various shells and the differences between them…so I thought I’d email you, just to let you know what a great job you have done!” —Farogh-Ahmed Usmani, B.Sc. (Honors), M.Sc., DIC, project consultant (Billing Solutions), Comverse “I have been learning Perl for about two months now; I have a little shell scripting experience but that is it. I first started withLearning Perl by O’Reilly. Good book but lacking on the examples.

  • Strembed-4 Users' Manual Embedding Design Structures in Engineering Information
    School of somethi ng faculty of other StrEmbed-4 Users' Manual Embedding design structures in engineering information Hau Hing Chau 13 July 2017 Version 4E What is StrEmbed-4? Structure Embedding version 4 (StrEmbed-4) is a deliverable from the Embedding Design Structures in Engineering Information project, a Design The Future project funded by Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (grant reference EP/N005694/1). Engineers use design structures, such as Bills of Materials (BoMs), to tailor product definitions, including shape, for particular activities. For example, an engineering BoM defines the as-designed product whereas a manufacturing BoM defines the as-built state of the same product and a service BoM includes information on how the product has been maintained. All of these BoMs relate to the same designed product. However in practice, because of restrictions arising from current computer aided design technologies and associated business systems, different BoMs are usually related to separate digital definitions of the same product. This creates significant data management problems that add cost, time and rework into product development processes. If resolved, substantial business benefits, through improved efficiency and effectiveness of product development processes, could be achieved. StrEmbed-4 demonstrates how a design structure, for example “as designed”, typically using a computer aided design (CAD) system can be embedded on to a corresponding hypercube lattice. This embedding relationship can be shown visually with this software. Any combinations or permutations of an alternative design structure is also embedded in this hypercube lattice. Modified design structure can be exported to a data format that can be read by a CAD system.
