If you're looking at IP addresses, be aware that a single user can have a different IP address every day, and that multiple users can share a single IP address. http://analog.cx/docs/webworks.html You can get a better definition of "who" by having your users log in, and using the User Report to see who the bandwidth hogs are (use the USERCOLS command to include a Bytes column in the User Report). Even without usernames/passwords, you might be able to use cookies to track users over time - you cn create a custom LOGFORMAT that will allow you to tret a specific field in your cookie as a username. But if you're trying to use the Domain Report or the Organization report to identify heavy users, then the question of why you get "unresolved ip addresses" is addressed in the FAQ: http://analog.cx/docs/faq.html#faq140 Even when you set up DNS Resultion (http://analog.cx/docs/dns.html), up to 1/3 of the addresses in your logfile may be unresolvable - not everyone creates Reverse DNS entries for all their IP addresses. It's also possible that you will get unresolved response if your FLOOR is set too high. > Am I in the right section, and if yes, how can I get the information > from analog? Which Reports are you looking at, and are you trying to pick out single individuals that you think may be abusing your service, or are you just trying to get a general overview?
