Hello,

I discovered log2timeline recently and really like it but I discovered that I was not able to find a shell-session opened by www-data in the timeline and when I checked the logs I found the evidence in the auth.log

Is there a reason log2timeline do not parse that file?

Markus, there are many formats that Plaso log2timeline does not support

If you want format support here is how you can help

1. collect / create test data that can be shared, preferable test data that represents the necessary edge cases
2. document the format, including the edge cases and common corruption cases
3. write the parse and submit a PR to the project
