You mean linking from the Request Report and Referrer Report? Linking is off in the executable, although it's turned on again in the default configuration file. The best way to set up analog for several virtual hosts is to have a default configuration file which contains common commands, and then put only variations in each host's configuration file. If you've done this, it's easy -- just turn linking off in the default configuration file. If you have linking turned on in each configuration file, you basically have two options: 1) Turn it back off in each configuration file. This is a one-minute job with a Perl script -- try something like perl -i.bak -pe's/.*LINKINCLUDE/# $&/' [all configs] 2) Compile analog with a mandatory configuration file. This overrides the commands in all the other config files, and you can turn linking off in there. The disadvantage is that you can't enable it for individual hosts. Finally, if what you're really worried about is spiders/robots, note that the output already uses the robots META tag -- but for added protection, you can add the pages to your /robots.txt file. -- Stephen Turner, Cambridge, UK http://homepage.ntlworld.com/adelie/stephen/ "The question of whether a computer can think is no more interesting than the question of whether a submarine can swim."
