Re: Looking for program to analyze logs

[nick () SECURIFY COM (Nicholas de Jong)]

Actually I wrote a PERL script to handle this kind of problem the other week, it is good for log files up to about 
3-4megs really, yes I should give it a rewrite to handle larger log files, but hey....  I already sent a copy to Mieth 
if anyone else is interested, send me an email.

Reviewing your messages and seeing the traffic I am working with, I have
surmised that you have some pretty decent tools to work with.  Our PIX
produces about 500mb of logs a day which means I might as well not have
logging since there is no way I can review this amount of data myself.
Would you please recommend an analyzing tool to break out the important or
at least likely important information from the logs?

Sincerely,

Lindsay Mieth
