Greetings,

I am looking for recommendations on the best all-around free log analysis program.
I would like to obtain the following information from my log files:

-Apache: all information about who is accessing my web server, including errors
-MySQL: who is accessing the database, any errors, etc.
-PHP: any errors that might have occurred
-SSH: again, who is accessing the SSH server, time of access, etc.
-System logs: yadda yadda yadda

It would be ideal if such a program could generate one master report, each section of the report containing information about a different log file. I would prefer to access the log files remotely instead of running the log analysis program directly on the server, or is this not the most sercure method?

Thanks,

*Nick*

I use http://www.mrunix.net/webalizer/
It's easy to install and setup, a no-brainer. The defaults can be tweaked by editing it's config file in /etc.
