man ms_isa2dlf (1): convert Microsoft ISA server logs to DLF

SYNOPSIS

ms_isa2dlf [file]

DESCRIPTION

ms_isa2dlf converts Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server log files in the W3C Extended Log Format to the proxy DLF. The ISA log files are documented on the section on ``Firewall and Web Proxy log fields'' in the document ``Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server Enterprise Edition'' at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc723430.aspx.

DEBUGGING

As any Lire 2dlf program, this program needs adjusted LR_DBDIR, LR_DBFILE, LR_ID and PATH variables. These are set in .../etc/lire/defaults and .../etc/lire/profile_lean. After manually source-ing these files, one can run this program as a standalone application, by invoking it as e.g.

 zcat ms_isa.log.gz | LR_ID=`date +%Y%m%d.%H%M%S` ./ms_isa2dlf > /tmp/dlf

EXAMPLES

To process a log as produced by the Microsoft ISA Server:

 $ ms_isa2dlf < ms_isa.log

ms_isa2dlf will be rarely used on its own, but is more likely called by lr_log2report:

 $ lr_log2report ms_isa < /var/log/ms_isa.log

THANKS

Chainsaw on OPN irc, for supplying log files.
