NAME
referer2dlf - convert referer web server log file to www DLF
SYNOPSIS
referer2dlf file
DESCRIPTION
referer2dlf converts Referer web server log files to the www DLF.
Referer log format was first implemented in the NSCA httpd server.
Apache can be configured to log in that format.
Note that if you want to log referer information, the combined log
format is a better format.
REFERER LOG FORMAT
The Referer log format logs the referer information in the following
format :
I<uri> -> I<document>
where the fields have the following meaning:
uri The referring URI. This is the content of the Referer request’s
header which usually reflects the page where the user was before
that request.
document
The local document that was referenced by that URI. This is the
requested file without any query string.
EXAMPLES
To process a log as produced in the referer logformat:
$ referer2dlf < referer.log
referer2dlf will be rarely used on its own, but is more likely called
by lr_log2report:
$ lr_log2report referer < /var/log/httpd/referer.log
