You need to log an "extended log" to create one report with it all -
errors get short shrift. The company I work at had no idea of
"referer logs" until I began to work there. I then learned of the
extended log and wrote the line in the conf file to create the
extended log which is a combo of the referer and access (I wonder
what would happen if I put errors in that?).

I give up. I just let it go. In most cases the other person really
doesn't want to know. Rather, they really want to know why I can't be
a part of the "Microsoft Solution". I went to Promus Company once to
interview for a temp job. I sort of knew I was doomed when they said
they were a "Microsoft Solution" company.
