butternut stats change

Butternut will now be running its own stats, which means butternut users will need to use a new URL to access their stats and logs. Users should be able to see their stats at:

http://butternut.forest.net/stats/username/

...where "username" is, of course, replaced with their own username. As a side benefit, you will also find a file in your home directory named "webalizer.conf.sample". If you edit this file and upload a new copy named "webalizer.conf," our stats system will use your config file while generating your stats. Note that while we permit this, we don't support it; it's available to you if you want to decipher the webalizer config file, but we won't provide tech support to help you with that. However, it's pretty well documented in comments inside the file.

Butternut's stats need to be caught up, starting with November 2nd, before it can start running them automatically on a nightly basis. We're not sure how long this will take, as it depends heavily on the amount of log data and how many unique IP addresses are contained within it, but we'll be running those updates as quickly as possible.
