[high]CREDITS:[/high] Freddie Bingham
Integration of Admin Quick Stats options.
I decided to integrate Freddie's hack because I anticipated that several users will ask for it.

ESTIMATED INSTALL TIME: 2 minutes
REQUESTED BY: Nobody
TESTED IN VERSION: 2.2.7

[high]NOTE:[/high] If your server does not support @exec('uptime'), the following stats will be disabled:
- server uptime
- host name
- host IP address (only)
- load averages

The way it was written the code before, you couldn't see any 'members online' stats, if you didnt run(host) a linux box. I enabled it so it's viewable all the time.
Also, notice the way it changes the plural of words, based on the value. for example, if the 'hour' value is higher then 1, it will show as 'hours'. This is available for all words that change, depending on the number variable.

NOTE: If you installed PPN's Attachments as Files, read this post.

How do you configure your server to support the uptime features? I'm running Apache.

my new server won't read uptime either. I'd love to get it working again, but not sure how

the problem is in user rights... look here :

Warning: SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 1740 is not allowed to access /proc/uptime owned by uid 0 in /home/www/web1/html/forum/admin/index.php on line 158

Warning: fopen("/proc/uptime", "r") - Success in /home/www/web1/html/forum/admin/index.php on line 158

don't look at the number of lines and try to compare to yours... the main idea is to chmod + chown /proc/sys/kernel/hostname to the same uid as your webuser (vbb)

[wooolF[RM]]

actually I can say it in other words :

u must :

a) run index.php as root and then u'll get rights to run uptime commands (which is owned by root)

OR

b) make uptime command owned by your webuser (same uid as vbb user)

OR (dunno if possible)

c) let uptime command be run as root and as webuser

I'm wondering if this is just me or is the admin home page is taking very long to load? The server is on a dedicated server btw.
