This script, meant to be run monthly, submits statistics anonymously
|
|
to a central checkin server (http://bsdstats.org), in an attempt to
|
|
generate reasonably accurate demographics of both *BSD usage, as well
|
|
as devices in use.
|
|
|
|
Steps have been taken to make eliminate security concerns brought up
|
|
in earlier releases of this, including, but not limited to, not storing
|
|
anything in the database that has been deemed as 'sensitive' (ie. IP of
|
|
the reporting server, and hostname).
|
|
|
|
********************
|
|
To enable the port, edit or create /etc/periodic.conf and add this line:
|
|
monthly_statistics_enable="YES"
|
|
|
|
To enable device reporting, add this line:
|
|
monthly_statistics_report_devices="YES"
|
|
|
|
To run it manually the first time, just run it as:
|
|
/usr/local/etc/periodic/monthly/300.statistics
|
|
|
|
To view current statistics, go to:
|
|
