I shall treat this as a serious enquiry. On installation, the
user is asked where the output of webalizer i put into
(/var/www/webalizer being the default), the title for the report, and
where it should look for the apache logs. This creates the initial
version of the configuration file /etc/webalizer.conf.
By default, webalizer is set up to run daily.
As far as I can see, there was no need to modify httpd.conf --
and it works just fine with either apache or apache2.
Perhaps your expectations have been tainted by lesser
distributions?
