Thanks for the answers. Still, one of them (regarding the user agent identification) is conflicted by my experience.
For the OS Report to work correctly, Analog obviously needs to read everything in the user agent name from quotation mark to quotation mark. However, to me it seems that the OS Report counts anything as a robot only when the ROBOTINCLUDE-d string is outside the brackets in the user agent name, like this: "Googlebot/2.1 (+http://www.googlebot.com/bot.html)" When it is inside the brackets, analog is unaware of it being a robot, like here: "Mozilla/2.0 (compatible; Ask Jeeves/Teoma)" This robot clearly does identify itself as the one from Teoma, still not counted in "Known robots". Same applies e.g to Slurp or INGRID. Any way to get around this? > > Looking at my latest Analog report, robots from the main engines > > (easily identifiable from the Host Report) account for much more > > than what the OS Report tells me (at least double). > > The OS Report and ROBOTINCLUDE work only on the user agent name > (Browser field).
