There is a CGI version of analog, so it might be possible. It could be tricky though. First you would have to have a version of analog precompiled for that platform, then you would have to set it up and test it only through the CGI interface. And even then your ISP might have set up CGI with restricted permissions so that it can't run analog. > I've been downloading the logs and creating local reports using other > software.

I don't understand what the problem is with generating the reports on your machine, then uploading them to the server. > Again, the whole problem is that the ISP is too busy to be bothered to > install Analog and Report Magic for us, and we don't want to run reports > locally if there's another option.
