NAME
       xferstats - summarize HylaFAX transmission accounting

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/local/sbin/xferstats [ options ] [ files ]

DESCRIPTION
       xferstats is a command script that prints a summary of the
       HylaFAX accounting statistics for transmitted  jobs.   The
       statistics  can  be  sorted using one of several keys: the
       sender's account name (default), the job tag (useful  when
       used for accounting purposes), the remote party's CSI, the
       called phone number, the output device used for the  call,
       the  communication  speed, and the communication data for-
       mat.     Statistics    are    read    from    the     file
       /var/spool/fax/etc/xferlog  in  the  spooling area, unless
       filenames are specified on the command line.

       The following table is an example of the output from xfer-
       stats (using the default sort key):

       Total                  2034    25:49:13  1.3      135
       The first column column shows the sort key value used (the
       sender's identity  here,  but  otherwise  the  destination
       phone  number, remote CSI, etc.).  The Pages column is the
       total number of good pages transmitted.  The  time  column
       shows  the  total  amount of time spent transmitting.  The
       Pg/min column displays the  average  transfer  rate.   The
       Errs  column  indicates  how  many errors were encountered
       while transmitting facsimile.  (Note that  this  statistic
       does  not  include  problems  encountered  while placing a
       call; e.g.  busy signals.)  The  TypRate  column  displays
       the  most  common communication speed with which facsimile
       were transmitted.   The  TypData  column  shows  the  most

       common  data format in which facsimile data were transmit-
       ted.

       By  default,  account  names  other  than   ``root''   and
       ``guest''  are  automatically mapped to a canonical format
       in which the host name is removed and identical  addresses
       in  the  same  domain  are  merged together.  For example,
       ``sam@flake.asd.sgi.com''  and  ``sam@foobar.asd.sgi.com''
       are both mapped to ``sam@asd.sgi.com'' with the associated
       statistics accumulated.  Identical account names  in  dif-
       ferent     domains     generate     a     warning;    e.g.
       ``loki@wpd.sgi.com'' and  ``loki@corp.sgi.com''.   If  the
       -nomap  option is specified, then the above mapping is not
       done and account names are not altered.

OPTIONS
       -csi*       Sort output by the remote party's CSI.

       -dest*      Sort output by the phone number called.

       -dev*       Sort output by the output device (i.e.  modem)
                   used.

       -format     Sort output by the negotiated data format.

       -job*       Sort  output by client-specified job tag iden-
                   tifiers.

       -nomap      Supress the normal  account  name  mapping  by
                   which   statistics   for   the   ``root''  and
                   ``guest'' acounts are merged and leading host-
                   name part of domain names are stripped.

       -send*      Sort   output   by   sender's   account   name
                   (default).

       -since time Show information only for the facsimile trans-
                   mitted since the specified time; where time is
                   of the form ``MM/DD/YY  HH:MM''  (the  date(1)
                   format string %D %H:%M).

       -speed      Sort output by the signalling rate.

DIAGNOSTICS
       ``Warning, address clash, "%s" and "%s".''  During address
       mapping two mapped  addresses  were  found  for  the  same
       account name.

       ``Warning, weird user address/name "%s".''  During address
       mapping an address was  encountered  that  multiple  ``@''
       symbols in it.

FILES
       /var/spool/fax    spooling area

       etc/xferlog       default file from which to read statistics
