Which is the BEST log analisys tool for PIX?

Webtrends is lame and what we are currently using. What do you recommend and why?

Thanks.

You should download an eval copy of Private I from http://www.opensystems.com/ an see if that better suits your needs.

I guess I should have expanded on my original message to help everyone help me.

I am looking for a tool to parse PIX logs (syslog format) in a way that can alert as well as inform. I am not looking for a high level overview like Webtrends or Private I. I don't care for graphs, just the goods. Show me a trend yes, but in a way I can find out from that what happened without resorting to the original log.

Thx

What OS is the machine capturing the syslogs?

I use a Linux box for this is run logsentry on it (www.psionic.com). It is pretty flexible as far as customizing the alerts and what to ignore. I found it better than logwatch which is what comes with Red Hat Linux.

Hope this helps!
