Thank you a lot!!!
--------------------------------------
---- What's new in Version 1.4 ----
From now on I support only the Frontdoor-logstyle because I have
no time or opportunity to get some opus-styled logfiles for testing
it!!!
I think it should run now also with the new EMSI-Session and so this
should be the last release.
Some new features:
There are three possibilities to call RALOG:
1. RALOG - It will show you a summary about the whole
logfile
2. RALOG 15.03 - It will show you a summary only about the
given date, in this example for the 15.03.
3. RALOG 15.03 20.03 - It will show you summaries from 15.03 -
19.03!!
This meens you will have to add always one
day to the number of days you want to have
the overview.
You may stop scrolling now by pressing ESC.
Users leaving your box by pressing ALT-H are in a different colour.
---- Whats's new in version 1.3----
Because Markku Tauriala of 2:515/6 has written a very good program
called RLSNIP that allows to use RALOG remotely or to write the
informations created by RALOG into a file I changed RALOG to leave
with some different ERRORLEVELS:
1 - RALOG can't find CONFIG.RA
2 - RALOG was called with a date (RALOG 10.10) and there are no more
logfileentrys with that date
3 - RALOG can't find a logfile
4 - RALOG was called with a date and this date is not found in the
logfile
Because I'm always interested who was calling my system every day
and I think that it is very stupid to have a look into the Logfile
I wrote an small program called RALOG.
This program looks into the Logfile and writes a little report
about all important useractivities to the screen.
It's not necessary to tell RALOG wether your Logfile is written in
OPUS or FRONTDOOR logformat or what the name of your logfile is,
RALOG will have a look into your CONFIG.RA and will get all infor-
mation there.
It is no problem if you are using RA with Frontdoor and both
programs are using the same logfile to write their informationes
in, RALOG will ignore the Frontdoorentrys and shows you only the
informationes written by RA.
----
Installation:
There are only two possibilities to use RALOG:
- RALOG finds the environment-variable like RA=<d:\pathtoRA>.
In this case you can use RALOG in any directory you want.
Make shure that you have included the drive of your RA system
directory not only the path. F.e. D:\RA is valid, \RA NOT !
- If you call RALOG in the same directory with CONFIG.RA, no
environment-variable is needed.
----
Following opportunities exist:
RALOG RALOG reads the whole logfile and shows you all
informationes.
RALOG 03.05 Only the informationes of the third of may are
displayed.
If you made a mistake or RALOG can't find the
date you have choosen it will stop with an
errormessage.
The informationes of RALOG are:

No. ==> The number of the call is shown.
Calls where the user gave a wrong name or has broken
the login are not counted.
In this case you will see "--" instead of a number.
Date ==> The date of the call.
Start ==> When did the user start the session.
Min ==> How long did the user join your system.
Name ==> Following entrys are possibel:
Username : The name of the user, what else
:-)
If the name is written in RED then
you may be inshured that the user
didn't leave the box in the correct
way.
Name + T-MSG : The user logged in with "name" but
this name is one of the names you
have in your TRASHCAN.CTL.
WRONG NAME,
new LOGIN : The user made a mistake while
writing his name and reentered the
name.
Up ==> How many files did the user send.
Logentrys written by Filedoor are counted as well.
Do ==> How many files did the user download.
Logentrys written by Filedoor are counted as well.
Msg ==> How many messages did he write.
Baud ==> Users baudrate.
Level ==> Following entrys are possibel:
f.e. 100 : Users level.
NEW : A new user joined your system.
PWD : The user tipped a wrong password more
then three times.
CRASH : A user logged in but hook up during the
loginprocedure.
- : A user logged in with a name forbidden
in the TRASHCAN.CTL or with an wrong
name.
Pgd ==> Did he call the sysop?
Onlinetime ==> The whole onlinetime of all users.
Calls ==> All calls.
Min./Call ==> The average of how many minutes per call.
I think these are informationes every sysop is interested in.
If you find any mistake or have a tip for a change of my program
please write me a small message.
Many thanks to Markku Tauriala for his suggestiones!!
