Re: Url checker
Thanks Jasper, I just thought of another solution. Stupid me not thinking of it earlier. I can log all http traffic with PF and write some perl to process the logfile.

Your boss _is_ aware that what he seems to be asking for is fundamentally impossible, due to caching proxies, dynamic IP addresses, multiuser systems, etc? An exact solution is impossible for the reasons you state. But you *can* do heuristic approximations. I don't know of any free solutions though. But I know that the OP isn't alone. There's a company doing that for the web sites they host, based on the httpd (Apache) logs. Dave Kind regards, Hannah.
