Its puzzling me and I am not sure what it needs me to put in that box and what that will do.

So could you explain for the dumb and dumber and in that format so I understand what it means?

Thanks

Ok, your webserver keeps a log of all activity on your site - what links people click, where they came from, their IP, etc

That log is a text file kept in some directory on your webserver.

I believe that it is asking you where your log file is, so it can run a report for you.

Do you know where your log file is?

this was the box that is right before this one. You put the title, domain name, then the index thing. You can see it on here. Then you click "next" and get this section with the path stuff.

What this program is supposed to do is keep track of things like "hits per day", etc. It'll make graphg of these days etc. That's all.....
