I finally got it all to work. You were right about the spaces replacing
tabs, but that was only the case in the small log file I had created...my
entire log file still had tabs. However, your config still didn't work, and
I had to analyze the whole thing with a text editor to figure it out. It
turns out there is a tab at the end of each line (don't ask me why), and
adding a /t finally everything worked. Well up to a point. It seems
somewhere in there BYTES-SENT was turned off, which I don't remember doing
but maybe my server has a mind of its own. Nonetheless, thanks for all the
help guys.
