NAME
     webresolve, splitwr

SYNOPSIS
     webresolve < access_log > access_log.resolved

     splitwr access_log > access_log.resolved

DESCRIPTION
     Webresolve  is  used  in  conjunction with a log analyzer to get host names
     rather than IP addresses in the statistics. Preprocess the log  files  with
     webresolve to replace IP addresses with host names.

     The  load from webresolve is very light, because it spends most of its time
     waiting for the resolver. This also means that large files can  take  quite
     some time to process. The solution is to split the log file and run several
     resolution processes in parallel. This is done by the script splitwr.

     By  default,  splitwr runs 20 parallel resolution processes. The number can
     be changed by editing the script.
