Processing FileZilla FTP Logs with Sawmill

When the dialog window appears, you'll see an option to select a file or folder from your Local Disk.  Next, click the Browse button.



When the option comes up to select your files or folder, click on the folder that the FileZilla logs files are in.  Once you select your folder click the OK button. 


When you get back to the previous window, click the Next button.  


Now, Sawmill will try to detect the Log Format type you're processing.


 
When the detecting process completes select your Log Format type.
 

At the next page, type in the name to your Profile into the text box.  You can call your Profile name FileZilla logs.
 

Next, Click the Finish button.



When the next screen appears,  click on the link that displays Process Data & View Reports.



Once you click the Process Data & View Reports link, Sawmill will start creating your database.   


After your database is complete, click the Log Details link in the Menu Bar to the left.



You can now see the database shows the files that have been downloaded.  They are designated as RETR (for retrieve) in the column to the far right.  The name of the Downloaded Video, the User Name and IP Address are all in the Log Details overview.  Within the Log Details you can see what video each user downloaded.

Now, this is just one of the items that you can perform in Sawmill for Log file analysis.  To learn more advanced techniques such as Scheduling Log Processing, Working with Roles, Resolving Domains and many other topics, attend on our 1-day On-line training for Sawmill Professional.   Call us a 866-566-1881 to sign-up for the class.
