Sure; it's in http://cs.indiana.edu/bin/hoststat.pl (it's a perl program.) It's designed to read log files in which each line starts with a (numeric) IP address; anyone who knows perl could change formats easily enough. I can't promise it's super efficient, but it avoids doing really dumb things (like calling gethostbyname() on the same host seven hundred times.) -- Marc VanHeyningen mvanheyn@cs.indiana.edu MIME, RIPEM & HTTP spoken here
