Hi since yesterday httpd logfiles are filling with entries like these: [Thu Nov 7 01:05:03 2002] [error] [client 217.228.21.1] Invalid method in request \xe3D [Thu Nov 7 01:09:44 2002] [info] [client 213.196.194.164] read request line timed out [Thu Nov 7 01:10:49 2002] [info] [client 213.196.194.164] read request line timed out [Thu Nov 7 01:11:47 2002] [error] [client 217.5.71.230] Invalid method in request \xe3B [Thu Nov 7 01:12:42 2002] [error] [client 217.225.105.88] Invalid method in request \xe3A [Thu Nov 7 01:13:44 2002] [error] [client 217.225.105.88] Invalid method in request \xe3A [Thu Nov 7 10:01:28 2002] [error] [client 217.235.143.250] Invalid method in request \xe3D [Thu Nov 7 10:04:30 2002] [error] [client 66.74.222.39] File does not exist: /usr/local/www/htdocs/sumthin Does anybody have seen this before? I never saw the \x??? request stuff before. Maybe some kind of DoS attack / exploit attempt? Most of the clients have german IP addresses (T-Online), so I think it might be an attack targeted especially at my server. Bjoern
