I am running a comerce server 2002 and I have a monitoring process on my
server that pings the site to be alive. Unfortunatlly, This messes up my
Visiting reports as it pings around 1200 times a day!
I have tried to screen out the caller IP by adding an exclude to the web-log
import DTS, but I am still getting a very high cound on my visit and distinc
t
user reports.
Help would be highly appreciated

Could you not exclude the page that you are pinging from the web logs via
IIS?  I am asusming that you are using a separate page for this task, is
that correct?

Dear Matt
Thanks for the prompt response. No, I am using one of the site's catalog
pages as I want to verify that the store works properly.
If there is no other alternative, then I will create a test page for the
monitoring, that simulate a regular store page. I still wish I could screen
out the caller IP, This would enable me to screen company users out of the
statistics too.
