.SH NAME
logresolve \- resolve hostnames for IP-adresses in Apache logfiles
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B logresolve
[
.BI \-s " filename"

.I access_log
>
.I access_log.new
.PP
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B logresolve
is a post-processing program to resolve IP-adresses 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.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP 12
.BI \-s " filename"
Specifies a filename to record statistics.
.TP 12
.B \-c
This causes
.B logresolve
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.
