Just wondering if there is an existing HTTPProvider that can be enabled for viewing the log files?

Hi there, here is a [user submitted HTTPProvider](http://community.wowza.com/t/-/38561) that may suite your needs or work as a starting place.

Salvadore, Thanks for posting that link. I may just add delivery of the log files to my custom HTTPProvider. Probably just the current day will be sufficient seeing as how large data transfers are a problem.
