Often, system administrators need to analyze log files. This can be done using a paginator such as <code>less</code> when your system has just been set up and/or you're the only user. On a production system it is not unusual to have thousands of legitimate users per month accessing the server's services, plus thousands more bots looking for unpatched vulnerabilities, brute-forcing username/password pairs, or just downloading every available file on your web server.
In this assignment you will create a program that will help you as a Apache server administrator to answer questions about the status, load, and security of your web server. You will not need to set up a mail web server for this assignment, though you're welcome to use the one you've set up in OPS335 as a practice machine.
