I've got a few websites running on a Windows Server 2003 Web Edition with IIS 6.0. I'd like to monitor the number of hits it gets. How can I do that?

I have stats like that set up on my cPanel. Do you have that or something similar?

I don't have anything. What is cPanel? How can I get it? Is it free?

Thanks, but appearantly cPanel is not currently supported by Windows. Does anyone know of any other programs? What would I type in to do a search for these kinds of programs?

hits really aren't a good measurement of actual traffic, if that's what you want to do. In any case, on two of my shared webservers, they have http://www.webtrends.com and that shows all sorts of great information.

Another way to do it would be to set up a odbc log file and put it into a database on your server. I'm currently learning how to do this with IIS 5, maybe I'll have more on this in a few days.
