Monitor open connections for httpd including listen, count and sort it per IP

It's not my code, but I found it useful to know how many open connections per request I have on a machine to debug connections without opening another http connection for it.

You can also decide to sort things out differently then the way it appears in here.

awk '/q=/{print $11}' /var/log/httpd/access_log.4 | awk -F 'q=' '{print $2}' | sed 's/+/ /g;s/%22/"/g;s/q=//' | cut -d "&" -f 1

as unixmonkey7109 pointed out, first awk parse replaces three steps.

Checks apache's access_log file, strips the search queries and shoves them up your e-mail

It's not a big line, and it *may not* work for everybody, I guess it depends on the detail of access_log configuration in your httpd.conf. I use it as a prerotate command for logrotate in httpd section so it executes before access_log rotation, everyday at midnight.

Know which modules are loaded on an Apache server

This let you know which modules has loaded the Apache server, very useful to know if the mod_rewrite is ready to use.
