Download managers and logs

Using download managers how does that look in the logs

[Hobbyist]

Does anyone know how download managers are reflected in web logs? Does such downloads appear as one connection or two?

Hi Hobbyist,

They produce a new line for each seperate connection, sometimes with a 206 status code but usually not.

Most download managers identify themseleves using their useragent so you should be able to identify what they are doing in the logs fairly easily
