Re: Only include logs that has a certain string

Hi Anegus,

Thanks for your response. Sorry I should have been more specific. In my 
IIS log file, among other logging properties I also log the "URI Query 
(cs-uri-query)" which basically is the web request URLs sent back from 
the clients to the web server. For example, in the IIS log, URI Query 
logged for a line is the string:  
"operation=checkpass&user=mnphmf&pwd=blahblah&passdirect=y" and for my 
Analog report I want to take into account only the lines from that IIS 
log file which has the word "mnphmf" in them or may be "user=mnphmf" in 
them. This way I would know exactly how many times they logged into my 
server. By the way, we run CGI based web applications on our web server 
and hence most of the activities are not pulling up just static files, 
they are rather web requests as URLs from the clients sent to the server 
which executes a .exe CGI program with parameters at the server and it 
sends back a dynamic HTML page as streams to the client. Its (CGI) a 
very old technology but works well for our heavily database driven 
applications.

regards
Ridwan
