It depends on what you are wanting from your logs.  I have looked at several 
and some are better at certain functions than others.  E.g. if inappropriate 
web access is your concern, one program might be better at that particular 
function.  Take a look a www.loganalysis.org for some basic guidance.  I am 
currently using Kiwi Syslog and Firegen for Pix on an XP pro with pretty good 
results.  Firegen is a good all around log parser for the pix logs if you want 
security information as well as internet access reporting. We're on a tight 
budget so some of the log parsers were out of range.  I get most of what I need 
out of Firegen and the tech support has been outstanding. Downside is that you 
will have to run on a Win box and point to your linux syslog server or use a 
windows syslogd like kiwi (which also has been great as far as I can tell.)


I just installed my syslog server (Linux).
Do you have good advice for a pix log analyser ?

Thanks !
