Hi Felix, Thanks for the response and thanks for clarifying that this feature is not currently implemented with the access log sampler...
Do you somehow think what I want to achieve can be done via the jmeter jsr223 mechanism? I read this is a replacement of the beanshell and it allows one to write a custom sampler...the problem is that there is little documentation out there on how to use the jsr223 mechanism... Before I embark on a wild goose chase, I would like confirmation from someone more familiar with Jmeter to indicate if what I want to do is possible or not...
