I forgot to mention that we currently have "one big log" (I will be
breaking it up into chunks in a month or so). I was able to re-run
everything by modifying the script to read the shortdate off the command
line...
daily.sh 000925
would process the data for that day and then create
/wwwlogs/20000925/index.html
Put this in a script and then repeated the lines incrementing the date.
Processed 0915 - 1208 in about 1/2 and hour... sweet!
Thanks all!
