<title>logresolve - Resolve IP-addresses to hostnames in Apache
log files</title>
<summary>
<p><code>logresolve</code> is a post-processing program to
resolve IP-addresses in Apache's access logfiles. To minimize
impact on your nameserver, logresolve has its very own internal
hash-table cache. This means that each IP number will only be
looked up the first time it is found in the log file.</p>
<p>Takes an Apache log file on standard input. The IP addresses
must be the first thing on each line and must be seperated from
the remainder of the line by a space.</p>

<dt><code>-s <var>filename</var></code></dt>
<dd>Specifies a filename to record statistics.</dd>
<dt><code>-c</code></dt>
<dd>This causes <code>logresolve</code> to apply some DNS checks:
after finding the hostname from the IP address, it looks up the IP
addresses for the hostname and checks that one of these matches the
original address.</dd>
