18 .SH NAME
19 sarg \- Squid Analysis Report Generator
20 .SH SYNOPSIS
21 .B sarg
22 .RI [ options ]
23 .SH DESCRIPTION
24 \fBsarg\fP is a logfile parser and anylizer for the \fBSquid Web Proxy Cache\fP,
25 which can be found at \fBhttp://www.squid-cache.org/\fP.
26 This manual page documents briefly the
27 .B sarg
28 command. More information is available at \fBhttp://sarg.sourceforge.net/\fP.
29 This manual page was originally written for the Debian distribution
30 because the author didn't include one in favor of documentation
31 in the GNU Info format; see below.
32 .PP
33 .\" TeX users may be more comfortable with the \fB<whatever>\fP and
34 .\" \fI<whatever>\fP escape sequences to invode bold face and italics,
35 .\" respectively.
36 \fBsarg\fP is a tool that allows you to view "where" your users are going to on
37 the Internet. \fBsarg\fP generates reports in HTML, with fields such as: users,
38 IP Addresses, bytes, sites, and times. These HTML files can appear in your
39 web server's directory for browsing by users or administrators. You may also
40 have \fBsarg\fP email the reports to the Squid Cache administrator.
41 .PP
42 \fBsarg\fP can take the \fBsquid\fP access log as its input, or optionally the
43 \fBsquidGuard http://www.squidguard.org/\fP Squid filter/redirector logfile format.
