Stephen,
You were right... the DIREXCLUDE /img/ worked. Not sure why I was using
/img/*.
The .pl does do a redirect when it is done... No easy way to fix it
at this time, so I will direct people to the redirection report for
now.
Thanks for the quick response! Great program!
I will soon be adding CacheFlow caching servers into the mix. Last time
I used analog to proces the data, there were some difficulties. If I run
into them again, I will post a sample for everyone to mull over.
What would you recommend for situations where you have multiple server
logs for the same site? (eg. 2 servers both logging data)? During Beta
testing, analog was reporting a lot of double counted log entries (events
occuring in more than one file at the same time). It is my feeling that
these warnings can be ignored...
