ms_isa2dlf1

Convert microsoft isa server logs to dlf

Usage

ms_isa2dlf [file]

Overview

ms_isa2dlf converts Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server log files in the W3C Extended Log Format to the proxy DLF. The ISA log files are documented on the section on "Firewall and Web Proxy log fields" in the document "Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server Enterprise Edition" at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc723430.aspx.

Debugging

As any Lire 2dlf program, this program needs adjusted LR_DBDIR, LR_DBFILE, LR_ID and PATH variables. These are set in .../etc/lire/defaults and .../etc/lire/profile_lean. After manually source-ing these files, one can run this program as a standalone application, by invoking it as e.g.

 zcat ms_isa.log.gz | LR_ID=`date +%Y%m%d.%H%M%S` ./ms_isa2dlf > /tmp/dlf

.

Examples

To process a log as produced by the Microsoft ISA Server:

 $ ms_isa2dlf < ms_isa.log

ms_isa2dlf will be rarely used on its own, but is more likely called by lr_log2report:

 $ lr_log2report ms_isa < /var/log/ms_isa.log
