They both log for each request. Maybe you have less visitors? Maybe
something else has changed?

What do you mean by "logs less"? There are less requests logged? Or each
request has less information logged?

If you configure them the same way, you should be able to log exactly the
same information.

Cheers

I mean that it seams to be less requests logged. Even when logs are equal
configured.

Every request should be logged...

I suggest you look in the logs (or use a log analyser) - maybe someone has
turned off logging for a particular subdirectory of your site or something?

Cheers

Actually, IIS6 logs at least the same, if not more, than IIS5. It's just
that the information is not in the same log files as before.

System32\LogFiles\W3SVC#\*.log -- one entry per request
System32\LogFiles\HTTPErr\*.log -- one entry per connection failure

On IIS5, everything was inside the W3SVC logs. On IIS6, the subset of
requests that were rejected for various reasons -- such as corrupt request
format (400 Bad Request), request timed out, service unavailable, etc -- are
all inside of HTTPErr logs. The W3SVC logs show the requests which were
valid and processed by IIS -- now, these valid request may themselves return
500 error, but that's a "valid request" with a 500 response status code.
