Suggestion to include periodic update to GeoLite database
If I recall correctly, the GeoLite free database updates periodically to correct for changing IP address physical locations. Since we only get the geolite database at install, is it possible to include scripting or some functionality to check for a new database and download it at some regular interval, even if its monthly?
Thanks!
I'm not quite sure about it. I mean, sure, it can be done, is just an http request + decompress. The main problem is, i'd like first to add a better shutdown/restart mechanism and/or some init script to handle automatic start, log rotation etc.
