Hi!

  Having a virtual Server  "info.rexroth.de"
  Other virtual servers are two proxy-server and other info servers.
  Each server has it's own referer-log or set to /dev/null.

<VirtualHost info.rexroth.de>
  [...]
  RefererLog logs/referer.info_log
  RefererIgnore  info.rexroth.de
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost proxy.rexroth.de>
  [...]
  RefererLog            /dev/null
</VirtualHost>
                       
The referer log shows for "referer.info_log" entries like (e.g.):
 "http://mpoint.mannesmann.de/mm/welcome-bottom.html -> 
http://mpoint.mannesmann.de/mm/Images/dot.gif";

Any idea why? This entries should never apear in the log.
Could this be done by the proxy (instead of writing to /dev/null)?
