SharePoint Thoughts - Discussion view

SharePoint Thoughts - Discussion view: "Many of the big companies I work with have a pretty common and reasonable request - how do I track usage of my portal implementation? This is a fairly tepid story as you learn about SharePoint and read through some of our Help files and KB articles. In short, our standard story is:
You can use Usage Analysis for Windows SharePoint Services
It won't work for SharePoint Portal Server (and we took it out of the admin UI after beta 1 or 2)
KB838702 says 'No usage analysis data is collected for portal sites in Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003.'

If you look in the IIS logs, you'll see that every time you download a document from SharePoint, the individual document is NOT recorded in the logs. Instead, the DLL that streamed the file back to you is - owssrv.dll.

What's a poor user to do? Fortunately all is not as grim as things might appear. Here are some things to help steer you in the right direction."
