I have also tried this with a similar configuration as Bob's and have found
that GBReports 3.3 does not appear to import the WELF-formatted logs from
KiwiSyslog 7.01 properly.

Instead, I am currently demo'ing WebTrends Firewall Suite 4.1... so far it
works great and provides tons of great information.

Just my two cents.
