Hi, 

You can check out the following site for info on log monitoring.
http://www.counterpane.com/log-analysis.html

Also, you can download our tool Log Analyzer, which is specifically written for IIS logs. The download zip contains a 
pattern file with common IIS attack patterns to scan for. Also given the log folder it will scan all files using 
wildcard matching. So you can use the date values within the log file names to scan only from a specific date onwards, 
etc.

Subject: Monitor IIS logs


I am looking for some advice on monitoring IIS logs.  Basically I could use
some help on the following:

1.  Important things to look for
2.  Free utilities to help me search through the logs
3.  Good references about web logs and how to spot an attack.
