| I found this strange entry in my Apache log, can anyone expain it to
me and tell me is it dangerous and how can I secure against it?
61.31.158.236 - - [28/Feb/2005:22:39:29 +0100] "CONNECT
news98.idv.tw:25 HTTP/1.0" 200 3853 "-" "-"
I guess someone is trying to use my computer as a mail server, but I
don't have mail server installed. Maybe there is a Windows XP hole that
makes it possible to use Win XP as a mail server remotely or sth like
that.
My computer is visible on the Internet on port 80 (www), I use it to
test my web pages and show them to other testers so I need externeal
(static) IP number.
My Apache 1.3.33 also has php 4.3.9 support
I checked this also with Apache 2.0.53 and it is the same
in both my Apaches proxy modules are disabled (commented in conf file)
system is Windows XP
Please advise
Chris
