<H2>WWW Logging Properties</H2>
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
The <B>Logging</B> property sheet sets logging for the selected
|
|
information service.
|
|
<P>
|
|
Logging provides valuable information about how a server is used.
|
|
You can send log data to files or to an Open Data Base Connectivity
|
|
(ODBC)-supported database. If you have multiple servers or services
|
|
on a network, you can log all their activity to a single file
|
|
or database on any network computer.
|
|
<P>
|
|
If you want to log to a file, you can specify how often to create
|
|
new logs and which directory put the log files in. The Convlog.exe
|
|
command prompt command converts log files to either EMWAC log
|
|
files or the common log file format.
|
|
<P>
|
|
If you log to an ODBC data source, you must specify the ODBC Data
|
|
Source Name (DSN), table, and valid user name and password to
|
|
the database.

Table name (not the file name of the table), and specify a user
|
