Is there a way to identify the usernames of the users securely logged on to the website? We need this to relate the maximum number of users within an organization logged on to our website.
If you are logging userIDs in your logfiles, then Analog can generate a report on the UserIDs in the logfile.
But Analog won't generate a report showing the number of "unique visitors" in each 5 minute period (or other time period). This is a version of FAQ 128 - http://analog.cx/docs/faq.html#faq128, You're trying to cross-reference users versus time, and Analog doesn't do that.
If you want to find out how many Users are recorded in your logfile between say 2PM and 3PM, you can use the TO and FROM commands to create a report for just that hour - you would have to run a seperate report for each hour if that's what you wanted.
(Note that because the web is "stateess", there isn't really any such concept as being "logged in" to a web server. Each request is authenticated seperately, and is handled as a unique event for the server. It's not like a telnet session or a remote desktop session, where you maintain a connection to the server for the duration of the session, even if you aren't actually doing anything, and the session is idle).
