The docs say use "dnsfile.txt", and my recollection is that when I
had the DNS set-up working properly before, "dnscache" was created
when I first activated DNSGOODHOURS and DNSBADHOURS.
Then every time I processed my accumulating log with analog in the
server directory, dnscache kept accumulating the new IP names, and
dnsfile.txt returned to 0 K at the end of each processing (although
the docs say that,
"analog saves the addresses it has looked up in a file, so that
you don't have to look them up again next time. . . . The file is
specified by a command like
DNSFILE dnsfile.txt"
and don't mention dnscache - which was what was actually created and
saved the addresses. Confusing!).
However, notwithstanding the appearance or non-appearance, and the
contents or non-contents of dnsfile.txt and dnscache in my server
analog directory, analog processes the IP names each session for the
FROM and TO dates configured - presumably from the DOMAIN ON
configuration.
My problem therefore remains'
1) I can't accumulate the IP name look-ups each session in my server
directory. even though they show up in my reports. Both
dnsfile.txt and dnscache are there, and both continue to contain
0 K - session after session.
2) When I obtain the look-ups in from the log file independently, in
dnscache, using DNSTran, I can't process the Domain report off Internet
- and the IP names in the Host and Organization reports remain numeric.
To repeat - the configurations I am using are:
On-Internet,
DNSFILE dnsfile.txt
DNS WRITE
DOMAIN ON
DOMSORTBY REQUESTS
DNSGOODHOURS 840
DNSBADHOURS 840
DOMCOLS 1R
DOMFLOOR 1R
and Off-Interfnet, substituting,
DNSFILE dnscache
DNS READ
I think the configuration error or omission is elsewhere in
analog.cfg, and hope one of our list participants can see what it is
and advise.
