Now finally able to host a website on my home static-IP ADSL connection, using Linux (FC-14) apache httpd-2.2.17-1.fc14.x86_64 ,
with "IP-passthrough" and "Full NAT" enabled on the ADSL router so it assigns my host its own WAN address ,
I'm seeing these strange entries in the access log :

Can anyone please explain the meaning of these /var/log/httpd/access_log entries ?

I guess this is just opportunist hosts trying to connect to port 80 / port 443 with a garbage protocol ?
If so, why are log entries made in the access log and not in the error log ?

Or is this some server misconfiguration ? 
Or perhaps some ADSL router issue ? 

Isn't there a log format that will print the server's socket address IP:PORT and / or VirtualHost name in the access log ? 
Can't seem to find it. 

Any suggestions much appreciated, 
Regards,
Jason
