[gentoo-user] is a nice "place" :-D

[Felix Miata <mrmazda@earthlink.net>]

After attempting to install for the first time last week, I started 3 
different threads here looking for help. I'm pleased with the nature of the 
responses, and being able to succeed eventually using a mix of those 
responses and my own efforts digging into Google, gentoo.org and cranial 
cobwebs. So, thanks to all who replied, and even to those who showed interest 
without replying.

For http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/G/, newly created to use with those three 
threads, 'cat /var/log/apache2/access_log | grep "GET /Tmp/Linux/G" | grep -v 
<myip> | sort > outfile' generated 117 lines. That's a lot more hits than I 
can ever remember getting before when asking for help from a mailing list 
(even if it did take 5 days to accumulate so many).

I'm curious if anyone here would like to offer a better variant of my local 
query that would limit the hit count so that no more than one hit per IP is 
represented in the output? My skill with such things is very limited. I can't 
think of the the name of a command to cut the IP off the front of each line, 
much less how to compare if it's a non-first instance to be discarded. Or, 
maybe there's an Apache utility for doing this that I just don't know about?
