ipac is an IP accounting package for Linux. It collects, summarizes, and nicely displays IP accounting data. The output of ipac can be a simple ASCII table, an ASCII graph, or even images with graphs showing traffic progression. ipac can be used for IP traffic analysis and for accounting purposes.

I have instaled ipac-1.10 and I have some questions because it is don't work.
I have received an eror message like:
/etc/cron.daily/sysstat:
/usr/local/sbin/fetchipac: cant open "/var/lib/ipac/data.db": File read error / Success
/usr/local/sbin/fetchipac: cant open database file "/var/lib/ipac/data.db" for reading: File read error / Success
/usr/local/sbin/fetchipac: cant open "/var/lib/ipac/data.db": File read error / Success
/usr/local/sbin/fetchipac: cant open database file "/var/lib/ipac/data.db" for reading: File read error / Success
The result from ipac is:
IP accounting summary

Data from 2001/07/18 00:00:00 EEST to 2001/07/19 00:00:00 EEST
and no more.
Where is my mistake?
I use Redhat Linux 7.1 with 2.4.2 kernel and ipchains.
If you have the solution or sugestions please mail me: kbela@lambda.ro

Bad download links, need fixing
The links point to v1.04. That version's no longer there, he strongly recommends upgrading to v1.05. Maybe he should have a symlink to "current", but the announcement is for v1.05.
