    I'm using webalizer to create my web site statistics. At the end of the statistics page there are "Usage by Country" statistics but for some reason no countries are shown. What's wrong here?

    You should have something like this in your webalizer.conf to make webalizer resolve the countries:

    Code:
    # DNSCache specifies the DNS cache filename to use for reverse DNS lookups.
    # This file must be specified if you wish to perform name lookups on any IP
    # addresses found in the log file.  If an absolute path is not given as
    # part of the filename (ie: starts with a leading '/'), then the name is
    # relative to the default output directory.  See the DNS.README file for
    # additional information.
    
    DNSCache        dns_cache.db
    
    # DNSChildren allows you to specify how many "children" processes are
    # run to perform DNS lookups to create or update the DNS cache file.
    # If a number is specified, the DNS cache file will be created/updated
    # each time the Webalizer is run, immediately prior to normal processing,
    # by running the specified number of "children" processes to perform
    # DNS lookups.  If used, the DNS cache filename MUST be specified as
    # well.  The default value is zero (0), which disables DNS cache file
    # creation/updates at run time.  The number of children processes to
    # run may be anywhere from 1 to 100, however a large number may effect
    # normal system operations.  Reasonable values should be between 5 and
    # 20.  See the DNS.README file for additional information.
    
    DNSChildren       5

    Usually it's under

    Code:
    /etc/webalizer.conf
    If it isn't, run

    Code:
    updatedb
    locate webalizer.conf
