Hi,
Thanks for using the SBS newsgroup! Also thanks for Tony's input.
In SBS 2003 environment, the Monitoring and Reporting component provides
function to monitor Internet activity. The usage information for internet
activity is contained in the server usage report. The information includes:
-- Internet Activity Web Activity by Computer.
The total and average daily hours a client computer was connected to the
Internet during the reporting period.
--Web Traffic by Hour.
The total and average daily number of connections made by all client
computers, by hour, during the reporting period.
*Note: If you use a router to access the Internet, usage information for
Internet activity will not be included in the report. Because Windows Small
Business Server 2003 is unable to monitor firewall statistics for
third-party devices.
Solution: Install a second network adapter on the computer running Windows
Small Business Server 2003, and then enable the Routing and Remote Access
service as the firewall on the server by using the Configure E-mail and
Internet Connection Wizard.
Another scenario: using the Internet Security and Acceleration (ISA) Server
firewall to access the Internet. After we install ISA on SBS server box,
ISA will track the web access activity and the Server Usage Report can not
fetch that data again. So the usage report does not show the web access
activity usage report is a normal behavior.
If we still want to be reported the web access activity information, we can
configure the Server Usage Report to send ISA logs.
To do that:
1. Open Server Management, and then click Monitoring and Reporting in the
left pane.
2. In the right pane, click Change Server Status Report Settings.
3. Click to select Server Usage Report, and then click Edit.
4. Click Content tab, and then click Add button to add the ISA logs.
5. Follow the instruction to finish the Wizard.
Hope above information helps! I am happy to be assistance of you and look
forward to your reply.
Have a nice day!
Sincerely,
Jenny Wu
