Here's an interesting scenario. My server sits behind a firewall. The way things are set up, every hit on the web site appears to come from one and only one IP address, making any stats about number of users, or paths through the site pretty much useless. (This is why I use Relax more than anything, since IP is not such a big factor)
It may be possible to log hits at the firewall, but in my environment it's tough to expedite such solutions. Does anybody have any other ideas that I might look into before I go that route? The only other one I can think of is to use an external service with a web bug.... I think IIS can assign a session ID cookie and log that, but I don't know an analyzer that would track users on that basis.
Thanks!

Depends on what kind of firewall you have.
If it's a stricly hardware/switched based firewall, then the short answer is "NO"
If it's a server that acts as a firewall, then you should be able to do some logging there, of IPs, but possibly not actifity on the server behind the FW

ClickTracks can track users by cookies if you have IIS log them, but I have never tried it (cookie logging makes our already too large log files even larger).
