There is no additional raw logs "field" that > stores "unique visitors" data. There is no log on the planet that will give you full 'unique visitors' info and put a guarantee on it being anything other than 'guesswork' - but that's not relevant to your problem. Check the bit in the Analog help about 'how the web works' for further clarification of that point. The main thing is you need to establish is what format (if they have altered it from the default Win2K IIS output) that they have set up. From the look of your logfile excerpt, it looks like it could be 'normal' W3 format, so that's a start. > > Analog doesn't export the data and just turns them off because it > thinks they are empty.

Regarding the missing 2, I'm assuming that's an edit problem - if not, it could well be the issue - Analog won't import a line without a datestamp, and each datestamp must be 'readable' as a date. If that 2 is missing from the file, that's not gonna help. Re the column order - is there a bunch of lines in the file starting with # and saying things like #Date 2004-07-07 and then #Fields date time URL, proto (etc, etc) - if not, is there any way you can get the Win2K box to spit those out too (selecting the log output for that webserver in the Internet Services Manager and choosing the desired W3 format, for instance). Failing that, you will have to examine the various columns, and determine what item of data they are, and then compose a 'LOGFORMAT' command to put into Analog's main config file. Documentation for this command is in the manual. Hope this helps a little - good luck.
