Hi! I have a board script to which users can post (of course) One IP-address has sometimes problems posting to that script, though. Look at the log's below.
xxx.xxx.25.50 - - [10/Feb/2002:21:15:33 +0100] "POST /cgi-bin/mboard/message.pl HTTP/1.1" 200 88 "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0)" xxx.xxx.25.50 - - [10/Feb/2002:21:15:36 +0100] "POST /cgi-bin/mboard/message.pl HTTP/1.1" 200 1683 "http://www.servern.nu/main.html" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0)" The first POST is erronuos as there is no content ("-") and the script won't accept it as vaild. The scond POST is okay as it has content ("http://www.servern.nu/main.html"). This happens ONLY to that IP-address. Since I havn't been able to find anything to do about the problem, and since it seems to come and go, and since it is only that IP-address, i draw the conclusion that the problem really isn't mine, but what causes it??? How can the POST loose it's content like that? I know who the user is so I know it's an actual post that he tried to make. The IP-address is an alias to a whole net with NAT (Linux). Could it be some kind of proxy-web-cache or something that causes the problem? Please excuse my poor english... Best Regards Anders, admin servern.nu
