Correct. MaxMind provide their own tool (geoipupdate) which implements their new requirement for authentication when downloading. The tool may already be available in your OS' package manager. CentOS has it (so presumably Red Hat does also.) Debian has it (and thus Ubuntu does). Gentoo has it. > I am on Dspace 6.3.

Do note that, when you signed up for a MaxMind account, you agreed to keep your copy of the database updated. An alternative would be to let 'geoipupdate' download a copy of the database where it will, and configure DSpace to use that copy by setting the value of 'usage-statistics.dbfile' in config/local.cfg to point to that copy. 'geoipupdate' stores the local database copy at the path indicated by 'DatabaseDirectory' in '/etc/GeoIP.conf'. I have a 'cron' job set up to run 'geoipupdate' twice a month, to keep the database updated. -- Mark H.
