Command line tool which parses a raw log file (.sdraw) from Simple DNS Plus (v. 5.0 and later),

- Convert Simple DNS Plus logs to W3C Extended log format
Use Simple DNS Plus raw request log files (.sdraw) with tools, such as log web-site traffic analyzers, that understand the standard W3C Extended format (as typically produced by IIS, Apache, and other web-servers).
The command line syntax is:
sdraw-w3c.exe <log-date> <raw-log-file> <w3c-log-file>
Raw request log files are enabled in the Simple DNS Plus Options dialog / Logging / Log Files section.
The zip file below contains both the compiled .exe file as well as the
C# source code (VS2008). This is a very simple
program so if you want to add some type of filtering (only output some requests)
or build on this functionality, it is easy to do so.
