    i have been trying to follow this howto:
    http://www.howtoforge.com/mail_statistics_mailgraph_pflogsumm_p2

    i have reached this stage
    cp -p /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailgraph.cgi /var/www/www.example.com/cgi-bin

    but I put my domain name instead of example.com and because my site is not
    live yet it was a thoughtless mistake.

    how can I change this mistake?

    You must use the path to your vhost's cgi-bin directory. If it's in /usr/local/apache/web37/cgi-bin, for example, you must use this path instead of /var/www/www.example.com/cgi-bin.

    no vhost that i know of!i do not have apache installed. I was going to use a ftp program to post the output of mailgraph to my web site which is hosted by my isp. isthis possible? The mailgraph deamon is running

    Good that you mention this right in the beginning...

    No, this doesn't work. The output is created by mailgraph.cgi, therefore you need an Apache on your server.

    I suggest that you install Apache, and then you must put mailgraph.cgi into the cgi-bin directory of your vhost, as described in the tutorial. :)
