Does anyone know if there is an event generated when a user connects?
I currently run a cron job every 3 minutes & then test the access.log for a specific pattern but would really like this
to be more responsive,
many thanks,
John |

No, there isn't. But why don't you do that with a perl or php script? Like an index.php could do that.
What do you trying to find out when a client connects? |

mainly I do this for security reasons.
I realize that apache is very secure, but what i need to do
requires system access, so really has to be done off site.
the php way could be one possibility (inserting into a database), but any polling method will create large amounts of data (I was taught in the early days of computing & i like to keep things small)
