This is in regards to the header and footer used on http://ftp.osuosl.org/
header and footer directives
Using mod_autoindex
we specify the following directives:
HeaderName: the header
ReadMeName: the footer
See apache docs for full details.
bandwidth bar
We use the 'bwbar
' utility. In a daemon mode it will write the png bar every /n/ seconds. We include this file in the footer. It will also write out a textual form of the data. Since do not use server side includes, we run a little bash script on cron that generates the footer file every minute.
