A script to monitor ftp download? [Edit]

Aware of any script i could use to monitor files downloaded from ftp ? Could be php or other kind - to be use on apache server (non windows). I'm mainly concerned with number of dowmloads, date and IP address. Thanks.

Note: i just learned that the ftp server i have at jumpline.com has no log to be seen. The script, if any is possible, should do without it!

My ftp server is provided by jumpline.com. They just told me that it will be not possible to use awstats since there is no log to be seen (ftp logging is unable). They suggest the idea of a script .... i have no idea how to do it.

I have no idea if you can't get a log.

There is this program net2ftp - a web based FTP client

It looks like it might be a middle man between your ftp server and the world and can log the traffic.

Thank you. I will have a look on that application. Up to now i have'nt seen any short script that will do the job of monitoring file downloaded via ftp.

I did install net2ftp. Its a very nice piece of php. I do have access to a log (users, ip, actions in a small log database) but no name of file downloaded. I will see if i can add in the log the name of the file downloaded.
