Hi Nabil,
Logs are kept in what was used to be called greenwich time. or the 24 hour
clock etc.
Pacific time is -8 from the green wich time. Take a look at this

UTC OR GMT
I think that a good site for those who would like to know is
http://greenwichmeantime.com  from this site you'll be able to determine
what your Zulu time settings should be. For example :  convlog -ie
Logfile.log -t ncsa:-0800 is for the pacific time zone. The convlog also
has the following syntax available:

Usage: convlog [options] LogFile
Options:
-i<i|n|e> = input logfile type
    i - MS Internet Standard Log File
    n - NCSA Common Log File format
    e - W3C Extended Log File Format
    -t <ncsa[:GMTOffset] | none> default i
    -o <output directory> default = curren
    -x save non-www entries to a .dmp logf
    -d = convert IP addresses to DNS
    -l<0|1|2> = Date locale format for MS
                    0 - MM/DD/YY (default e.g. US)
                    1 - YY/MM/DD (e.g. Japan)
                    2 - DD.MM.YY (e.g. Germany)

Examples:
convlog -ii in*.log -d -t ncsa:+0800
convlog -in ncsa*.log -d
convlog -ii jra*.log -t none

Good morning All,

I am having two problems with my ISA Logs and I need your advice.

1. There is a time shift with almost 7 hours in the logs, its not showing
the correct exact time of each web request. How can I fix this issue ?

2. Its very hard to check these logs in this format, is there any well known
program to import this Logs to read it in an organized way ?

Thanks for your help,

Ahmed
