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
