Ian (Mac?), it's whatever directory you are in when you are running the
webalizer script.  Typed "pwd" to find out the current directory.  If you're
running webalizer from a script (either manually or in a cron job) change to
the proper directory before running the webalizer program.  "cd
/path_to/whatever" to change the current directory.

Put it wherever you want.  Just make sure you "cd /path_to/whatever" first,
with that directory being the directory containing the webalizer.conf file
for the site.  You can put them in the logs directory, the site parent
directory or anywhere else.  Alternately, you can specify the location of
the configuration file using the "-c" flag from the webalizer program.  "man
webalizer" or "webalizer --help" for more details.
