I may try the version 3.02, just to keep current. In the meantime, I did discover that a subroutine in Logfile::Base requires Time::ParseDate, which was not installed on my system. I'm on a Win 2000 system and the module wasn't available from ActiveState so I downloaded it from CPAN and installed it. While it failed 92 out of 268 subtests, it still works enough to get through the Logfile date parsing.

Now I have an error  "No Index for Host".

Gotta love it. This much trouble for a "simple" 6 line bit of code. Back to debugging.
