Thank you. Yeah, that's what I've been doing -- limiting it by "FROM / TO" and run it multiple times. I just wanted to confirm I was not missing anything. Thanks for the reply!

This is one of the FAQs: http://analog.cx/docs/faq.html#faq128 Can I find out which files each referrer pointed to? or Can I find out which files each host has read? or Can I find out which hosts have read each file? or Can I find out the number of hosts visiting on each day? or lots of similar questions. There are lots of questions like this. They all want analog to cross-reference two sorts of item (e.g. files and referrers in the first example above, or hosts and dates in the last). The solution is to use the *INCLUDE commands. For example, to find out which files a particular referrer pointed to, restrict the analysis to just the referrer you're interested in with the REFINCLUDE command. The Request Report will then just list the files reached from that referrer. Similarly, if you're interested in a particular time period, you can focus on just that time by using the FROM and TO commands. You do have to run analog once for each report generated. So for the example of referrers, you would have to run it once for each referrer you're interested in. Of course, it would be useful to be able to cross-refererence all the files and referrers at once. But it is fundamental to analog's speed and minimal memory requirement that it only records statistics for each type of item individually, and doesn't record enough information to cross-reference them afterwards. In summary, you can run Analog multiple times to create hourly reports, and concatenate them, but Analog won't do it automatically.
