So I'm super paranoid guy and I always keep a pretty
close eye on my httpd logs... when I encounter this strange entry.
(or at least I think it's strange). I get an entry that says :
name.domain.tld - - [28/May/2003:01:40:09 -0500] "OPTIONS * HTTP/1.0" 200 0
I'm guessing the entry itself implys the end person is poking around,
looking for misconfigurations, et al... but the strange part
to me is I can not lookup name.domain.tld. Is this some
sort of misguided... idea of security? I could do a reverse
lookup to log, but...? it seems very flakey to me.
I thought it was perhaps a misconfiguration for this particular site,
but today a friend of mine has a very similar sort of log entry, only
with a doj.gov domain. Any thoughts?
thanks.
