What is dglog

Dlog its a CGI log analyzer for the web content filter DansGuardian, which is being developed under the GNU General Public License (GPL). you need to have DansGuardian installed and working. Dglog2 will read the access.log log file from /var/log/dansguardian directory. You can use dglog to to have a basic analysis of the dansguardian log. Its very simple and basic, but its a good start.

Make the necesary directory

mkdir -p /var/www/localhost/htdocs/cgi-bin/dglog
cd /var/www/localhost/htdocs/cgi-bin/dglog

Edit the dglog2.pl file

nano +104 dglog2.pl
