 Single IP_LOG file?

what type of sorting? is there some sort of indicator in each line that keeps
all of a session's entries together? maybe something like the number in [] in
this binkd sample?

it might be possible to combine those logs (eg: copy ip_1 + ip_2 + ip_3
ip_all) and then sort them by date/time and then the sequence number in []...

if you don't care about them being in date/time order, just copy them together
as shown above... but you'll have to do this each day after saving the
previous one or maybe use a unique name for each combined log...

i don't recall any way of having them all write to one... it is easier to code
for each writing to their own... why? because multiples writing to the same
log at the same time is not an easy task...
