I wanted to do that but my experience is that it will not read nested config files like I have set up for analog. I don't have a desire to keep duplicating config files when I can call multiple config files from the command line. Is there a DNS lookup program that will read multiple config files to find my log files in multiple directories (by year)?

QDNS looks at the same log files as Analog does, reads the IP addresses, does the lookups, and generates a DNS cache file. Then you configure Analog to read the DNS cache file You can point QDNS at an Analog .cfg file, and it's supposed to read the relevant settings from it (LOGFILE and DNSFILE, primarily), but you may want to just specify the settings on the command line until you are comfortable with it. QDNS /L logfile.log /D dns.dns /Y (ip address of DNS server) This will create the DNS cache file called dns.dns. I find that I have to specify my DNS server address on Windows NT - I don't know why, but QDNS seems to complain if I don't. Then add these lines to your Analog.cfg: DNS READ DNSFILE dns.dns Now, when you run Analog, it will use any hostnames that have been resolved for the Host, Domain and Organization reports.
