[users@httpd] Country Statistics

Hi,

I have an Apache 2 running and Webalizer generates statistics about
traffic. I have this little problem. The Statistics by COUNTRY only show 1
country (UNKNOWN). How can I solve this?

It is likely true that there is a webalizer/DNS config problem.  But
even if you get DNS resolution working, your results will be VERY
innacurate.  DNS top-level-domain does not map very accurately to
country, since MANY different countries use .com/.net/etc.  If you
want something more accurate, you need to use an IP address to country
mapping program like geoip.  (Even that won't be perfect, of course,
since the IP address of the connection computer/proxy is not
necessarily located in the same country as the user.)

Webalizer just does a reverse lookup on the IPs recorded in the access log.
So this is either a webalizer config problem or a DNS problem.

I dont use webaliser but I do know that a lot of ISPs disable that function
due to bandwidth usage from DNS lookups. So I would suggest you look at any
dns lookup settings it may have.

All the best

I don't use Webalizer, but you can use another free log-analizer called
AWStats that, according to its site, "Detect domains/countries of hosts
visitors (pages, hits, KB, 269 domains/countries detected, GeoIp
detection)".

You can take a look at http://awstats.sourceforge.net/
