(the "GET ...yahoo..." part)telnet into your own server: "telnet localhost 80" and issue the same GET command and see what happens. Chances are that your own page is displayed and you'll get the same kind of log entry. Regards, Mike Klinke This is the test: [leo@LeoLux]$ telnet io 80 Trying 192.168.1.3... Connected to firewall (192.168.1.3). Escape character is '^]'.

Curious the last line: <address>Apache/2.0.40 Server at www.yahoo.com Port 80</address> As well as the 400 response. Obviously I do not host Yahoo! If I type GET http://www.yahoo.com instead of GET http://www.yahoo.com HTTP/1.1 I do get my main page however. |
