Afternoon Everyone,

I'm wondering if anyone has come across the same issue that I've currently
encountered.  I've always used proftpd as our ftp server however have just
switched to vsftpd.  Currently I have it running with dual logging to get
the standard xferlog and its own native vsftp log.  I'm using webalizer to
generate reports off of the xferlog however its not working with the vsftp
generated xferlog due to a difference in the formatting of the log.

After examining logs from both servers it seems that whenever a file
transfer is completed on proftpd and the path/filename contains a space the
"space" gets converted to a "_" underscore in the log.  Vsftpd doesn't make
this conversion and leaves the space as a space.  This messes up webalizer's
reports as it seems to expect the log to be space delimited so its not
separating the fields properly.  

Does anyone know how to make vsftp make the space to underscore substitution
or a reporting program that doesn't have this issue? 

Thanks,
Daryn
