Hello,

I administer 5 remote firewalls and wish to do seperate centralized anaysis of
the logfiles to generate custom reports.

To get the log files, I propose to regularly FTP the files (in zipped version,
once a day, automatically)from the firewalls to a centralised machine. This
machine run a log anaysis software.  The report may be FTP'ed back or put up on
a website.

1) Are there any better approaches to do this?

2) We currently use Webtrends for firewalls and VPN's.  Is there an unlimited
license version for this product? (We are an ISP).

3) Can you suggest other log analysis software?

Thanks/Regards
