General Options

Name of organization:

Enter the name of the organization whose FTP server usage data will be analyzed by NetTracker. This name will appear on all NetTracker summaries.

URL of the site being analyzed:

Enter the URL (Universal Resource Locator) of the FTP site that will be analyzed by NetTracker. It should be of the form ftp://ftp.domainname.com.

Case sensitive pages and usernames:

When this box is checked NetTracker will consider upper and lower case characters to be distinct. If it is not checked they will be considered to be the same character. In most cases when analyzing log files from a UNIX system this box should be checked. In most cases when analyzing log files from a Windows NT system this box should not be checked.

Number of minutes between sessions:

Enter the maximum number of minutes (1-999) that can elapse between two consecutive file downloads by the same visitor and still be classified as a single session. The default value is 30 minutes. For FTP sites containing large files which may take longer than 30 minutes to download, administrators may want to increase the default value. For FTP sites containing small files, administrators may want to decrease the default value.

Resolve host names:

Click on the Resolve host names option box to instruct NetTracker to either resolve or not resolve host names. When this option is active a check will appear in the option box. The default value for this option is "off".

Since NetTracker must look up each IP address when the Resolve host names option is turned on, this may take a long time. Thus, the default value for this option is off.
