It is mind numbing to scan logs like httpd logs and see the crap your web server is hammered with constantly. I have been meaning to do some traffic analysis on all httpd traffic to mine to get an idea of how much bandwidth (not to mention CPU resources) is being taken up by this garbage. This ha

That's a good point about fail2ban. We actually use that on one of our other servers. I've asked Curt to look into installing it on this server, as well. It might not fix this issue, but it certainly wouldn't be a bad idea to run on this web server. Chris On Fri, May 7, 2010 at 2:01 PM, Mark J

Response code 200 is a success message as you suggest. not certain why it is being logged by logwatch, but, you should be in good shape. On Fri, May 7, 2010 at 1:31 PM, Chris McQuistion wrote: > I been getting the following messages in my Logwatch emails for a few > weeks, now. > > These started
