NAME

       combined2dlf - convert combined log file to DLF

SYNOPSIS

       combined2dlf file

DESCRIPTION

       combined2dlf converts web server log files in the combined log format to the www DLF. The combined (also
       known as extended common log format) log format was first implemented in the NSCA httpd webs server but
       is now supported in many web servers. Apache can be configured to use that log format.

COMBINED LOG FORMAT

       The combined log format is an extension to the Common Log Format; see common2dlf(1). It adds two fields
       to the end of the line:

         "referer" "useragent"

       referer
           The content of the Referer request's header. This usually reflects the page where the user was before
           that request.

       useragent
           The  content  of  the User-Agent request's header. This usually reflects the browser that the user is
           using.

       Log example :

         127.0.01 - - [11/03/2001 12:12:01 -0400] "GET / HTTP/1.0" 200 513 "-" "Mozilla/5.0"
         dsl1.myprovider.com - francis [11/03/2001 12:14:01 -0400] "GET /secret/ HTTP/1.0" 200 1256 "http://www.example.com/index.html" "Mozilla/5.0"

EXAMPLES

       To process a log as produced in the combined logformat:

        $ combined2dlf < combined.log

       combined2dlf will be rarely used on its own, but is more likely called by lr_log2report:

        $ lr_log2report combined < /var/log/httpd/combined.log
