Apache Proxy

Cyfin is designed to work with Apache Proxy. Your Cyfin system can be configured in two ways, either as an on-box or off-box solution.

Company Overview

Formerly known as the Apache Group, the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) was established in 1999 and is funded by individual donations and corporate sponsors. Its all-volunteer board oversees more than 350 leading Open Source projects, including Apache Proxy or Apache HTTP Server. Individuals who have demonstrated a commitment to collaborative open-source software development, through sustained participation and contributions within the Foundation's projects, are eligible for membership in the ASF.

Log File Type:  Apache Proxy

FTP Configuration Notes

If your log files are currently being FTPed, determine the destination server/directory. If you plan to install Cyfin on the server where Apache log files reside, no further action is needed. If you are not installing Cyfin on the same server, configure your logs to be scheduled for FTP transfer to the server on which Cyfin is installed.

Cyfin needs access to the Apache log files in order to run reports. You can either FTP them to the Cyfin machine, or put them on a mounted network drive that Cyfin can access. We recommend scheduling the log files to be FTPed to the Cyfin machine for the least amount of strain on your network.
