Does anyone have a good tool they can suggest that can import a w3c log file for viewing? Something that has a nice format to it. Thanks,

Hi,

if you�re talking about the .mdf files in C:\Arquivos de programas\Microsoft ISA Server\ISALogs folder, check this: http://www.redline-software.com/eng/products/tk/components/mdf_viewer.php

Thanks Paulo for the reply. However, I am talking about the w3c files my ISA server generates.

Hi,

oh, ok. I got it! Import these files to Excel.

I can do that and I have done that. My problem is, Excel has a limit on the amount of data and most w3c log files are greater than the excel limit (75k rows???). I tried making my log files smaller, they usually average about 300-500MB daily, but the smallest log file you can configure in ISA is 4GB.
