I'm in the (apparent) minority of Windows admins on this
list. I use QuickDNS myself, and have found it easy &
reliable.
I just installed it, and wrote a batch file that points
QuickDNS to my analog.cfg file where it finds the path to
the IIS log files to process. Then, make sure that your
analog.cfg is set to read the DNS cache created by
QuickDNS.
my batch is a whopping two lines:
qdns /G something.cfg /Y 192.168.1.1 (where
192.168.1.1 is the IP of my DNS server)
call analog.exe +gsomething.cfg
and something.cfg has this:
DNSFILE dnscache.txt
DNS read

QuickDNS has worked for me quite well but as I'm mainly
on a Solaris system I use DNSTran.

Stephen,
Wow! What a difference! It was the DNS. I had DNS set
to WRITE per the
IIS 6.0 How-To. When set to NONE it flew through the log
files.
This server has 2GB of memory so I couldn't imagine it
was that.
One question...If I did want DNS info what is the best
way to capture that
for future reports to run quickly?
Perfect! Thanks!
Chip

Have you got DNS lookups turned on? If so, turn them off.
Other than that, you may be running out of memory. If the
Task Manager shows
a high memory usage for analog but low CPU, and you have
a lot of disk
activity, this is your problem. In that case, try the
command
HOSTLOWMEM 3
