In IIS format, the second IP address is used to indicate which IP 
address the connection came to. In the vast majority of cases, there is 
only one such address involved, and Analog doesn't care about it anyway, 
so it can be considered junk.

You're approaching this from the wrong direction - you want to know what 
every field is, and then only "junk" the ones you don't want. The other 
approach is to assume everything is "junk", and then select the fields 
you really care about and "unjunk" them. If you don't know why a field 
is important, then it isn't important.

(I realize that from a learning point of view, this isn't necessarily a 
good approach. But from a learning point of view, you don't want to use 
the IIS log format, which isn't exactly well explained anywhere. Select 
the W3C Extended format instead, and see the different fields it gives 
you the option of logging, and the explanation for each one).

The User field will only ever be filled in if you restrict anonymous 
access, and cause users to "log in" to your server - if this will never 
happen, you can junk this field too. 

The term "web sites" is somewhat ambiguous (this isn't a criticism of 
you - lots of different people use it to mean different things). With 
IIS4, you can have multiple Virtual Servers running on a single box, 
with a single IP address. Each of these Virtual Servers will have it's 
own Logfile. If you have 5 Virtual Servers on your box, you can create a 
single Analog Report by specifying all 5 log files as input (5 LOGFILE 
lines in the ANALOG.CFG file).

If you mean that you have 5 different "Webs" on a single Virtual server, 
then they are all included in your one log file automatically.

Log files:
The indiscriminate use of %j for junk still doesn't make sense to me.  How 
do you know what to identify as junk?  In the following response you 
formatted  this output below with the following format statement.

206.19.211.20, -, 2/22/99, 11:00:35, W3SVC, EHSERV, 169.237.132.82, 942, 
>Try this LOGFORMAT command
>LOGFORMAT %S, %u, %m/%d/%y, %h:%n:%j, %j, %j, %j, %b, %j, %j, %c, %j, %j, 
%f, %q

That means something obvious like an IP number is junk?  also the domain 
name (EHSERV)?  I thought that might be %v or %f?
I assume I will eventually see something in the %u space?  If not what is 
the user?  
I have 5 web sites on my server so W3SVC%J should be used I guess instead 
of %j.  What do I need to do to include the other web sites in the logs? 
Is that an IIS issue?  There is only one setting there either on or off 
with variables in there as to size of file or time.

Sorry if I'm dense.  I am trying to get the info out of the whole.htm file.
