NAME
     mrtg-webserver - hints for web server configuration

SYNOPSIS
     If  you  want people to actually see the results of your network monitoring
     efforts you will need a webserver.

     This document lists some configuration hints for webservers.  Contributions
     welcome.

APACHE
   Configuring mod_expire
     A	big  issue with mrtg monitoring data is the expiry time.  All these nice
     graphs you can create are only valid for a short time.  If you do not  take
     special  action  some  webbrowsers  will not notice this and you may end up
     with people seeing old data because of caching issues.

     The apache module mod_expire allows you to setup special expiry  properties
     for individual file.

     Here  is  an  example for how this may look for an mrtg web directory.  The
     configuration directives can be stored into a .htaccess file.

      ############################################################
      # Example .htaccess for use with apache-1.2 and mod_expire.
      # (mod_expire come with apache-1.2 but you have to explicitly
      # activate it when compiling the httpd ...)
      #############################################################
