Q. Why WoodLog for YAWPS?
A. I was messing with YAWPS files when I discovered stats.dat.
    This file contained such info that wasn't full used by the basic YAWPS stats.
    Then I thought every YAWPS admin would like to know who entered and how.
    After that, I started programming it.
  
Q. Which info does WoodLog supply?
A. Date, Time, Host, Browser and OS.
    Also, it tells you the number of coincidences with the matching criteria you entered.

Q. There's no password protection for this CGI, what should I do to keep it away of other's eyes?
A. I didn't want to complicate it.
    Maybe next WoodLog release can have a password protection or so.
    I didn't want to integrate it fully to YAWPS because it looks like it changes a lot from version to version and I wanted to keep WoodLog universal.
    At the momment, the best you can do is to rename the script (check the config section dedicated to this and make sure the names match) so other's ignorance will be your best friend :D.

Q. Can I plant WoodLog everywhere?
A. Of course, but it must be inside your CGI executable folder and you must config properly the file locations.
     This can add an extra security (answering to previous question).
    
Q. Does WoodLog for YAWPS work with other portal systems or so?
A. WoodLog opens stat.dat file and parses its content.
     The records in this file are structured like this:
     Monday 14-October-2002 09:25 - 12-MADR-X24.libre.retevision.es - "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0)" - "-"
     If you have a portal system that logs entries like this, please, contact me in order to add more uses to WoodLog (In Spain we say "To kill 2 birds with just a single shot" ;D).

Q. Hey! Why are there parts coded in spanish?
A. I'm sorry, but spanish is my primary language after italian.
    I started to translate the config section (of course!), but then I realized I wanted to promote my                     language a bit.
    If you are a developer or you just want to know how it works and you don't understand something, drop me an email (angelonero@escorialvirtual.com).
    Although, you can customize the output words to your own language ;).
  
Q. What did you use to code WoodLog?
A. KEdit and Emacs (Linux) or UltraEdit-32 (Windows) depending where my computer booted :P.
    Dreamweaver 4 (Windows) to generate the HTML.
