As I am not a dedicated server administrator I´ll pass on this one.
What I can´t understand is all the thumbs down for something most of You did not even test!

I think it´s great that there is some variation from all the video converters offered her (which i btw almost always download...).
If it´s too specialized,just don´t download!

To give it a thumbs down just because you don´t need it or don´t understand the use is a bit stupid,

As a very part-time administrator of the web site for a small choir, software that did what this claims to do would be very useful. I know I /should/ spend time analysing Apache log files but I'd rather be singing.

The software downloaded and installed easily.
Problem 1: it requires your log file to have file type "log". My host creates log files of the form _log without a file type. Until I renamed the error log, ApHeMo wouldn't read it.
Problem 2: it appears not to read the access log. This is surely what you need to analyse if you want to detect attacks.
problem 3: there is absolutely no help, either with the program or on the web site. It makes no sense to supply software to help amateur administrators without providing documentation.

For me, this software is a waste of space. If it really delivered, I'd pay for it but for now it's going in the recycle bin.

How many 'strictly personal' users administer Apache servers?
Useless with this restriction, IMNSHO.

Has the usual "strictly personal use" restriction, which is pretty limiting since very few people run their own personal Apache servers. Probably explains the less than stellar rating it's getting.

ApHeMo is a must have tool for dedicated server administrators.

How many dedicated server administrators here?? LOL!

Please note that the software you download and install during the Giveaway period comes with the following important limitations:

1) No free technical support;
2) No free upgrades to future versions;
3) Strictly personal usage

hmm...something doesn't add up here: how can a software like this be used for non commercial purposes??

Anyway...as for the software performance it looks like a pretty decent server security tool but nothing special in my view, not to mention that it can analyze Apache HTTP Servers only: of course Apache is the most widely used web server on the NET nowadays, but it's not the only one on the market you can rely on to host your site.

Here you can find some clever tips to protect your Apache Web Server from hackers' attacks:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/misc/security_tips.html

However, if you are a webmaster and use an Apache HTTP Server for your sites, this app could be the right tool for you.

For sure I wouldn't spend 50 bucks for a software like this and not just because I'm not a dedicated server administrator....LOL!
