redhat 5.2
apache 1.3.3, built on oct 13, 1998.

on my windoze box, I have a few hundred pages of data from all the files in the directory where my verilog software is installed, but I'm assuming/hoping that this is the result of my bad hard drive and not an apache issue.

other than that, my logs are full of the usual: a little real traffic, and billions of nimda's with a few code reds.

edit: WTF? if the current is 1.3.22, how do I have 1.3.3 in redhat 5.2?? or is this a different version numbering?
 
RedHat 5.2 is from 1998 I believe, Id have to check on when apache 1.3.3 or whatever was released, but it was probably around the same time. You should really update everything 😛
 
The last time I checked, 3 was less than 22. 😉

Sorry, but I am a complete idiot when it comes to Apache, so I can't help you there.

oh yeah... i'm used to the world of windoze where 3 is >29 and less than 31 😉 although i shoulda figured it out since linux 2.4.17 is newer than 2.4.1, huh? 😉

I also have a lot of malformed header errors.

It would be amusing to get that box rooted... I'm sure the owner of whatever IP block attacks would be pleased to hear 😉
 
i had alot of "Client sent malformed Host header" as well as a few nimda/code red errors.

there was one other thing that i failed to notice about 2 weeks ago where someone was apparently spoofing my address and searching for every file and directory under the sun. Maybe something i ran on my machine was trying to search for files, or maybe someone was searching for something, i'm not sure. here's a snippet of a bunch of the crap in my error log:

some of that stuff looks like windows crap, but i'm not sure about it all. for example, the line that looks for index.cfm.... thats for coldfusion files and as everyone here knows coldfusion only runs on windows. maybe its an aspect of nimda.code red that im not aware of.

Never seen that... I thought coldfusion ran on linux too though? Ive never looked into it 😛

I dont really have anything out of the ordinary either, but from the reports Ive seen its been on a variety of platforms. Probably just buggy admins or something. 😛

ColdFusion runs both on Windows and Linux.

hmm... i just looked it up and you're right. i wonder if the older versions supported linux. i'm fairly sure it didnt, the anandtech server upgrade page once said so i think, or at least hinted at it. whatever 🙂
 


<< hmm... i just looked it up and you're right. >>



That surprises you? 😛

I have Linux versions of v4.5 and v5 on my shelf. I don't remember when they started on linux, but v4.5 lists RedHat 6.0/6.1 as a requirement and has a copyright date of 1999.

<< any idea why i'm getting processes segfaulting? >>



Still running 1.3.3? If so, UPGRADE 😉

I guess I shouldn't have removed as much as I did... I think doing that would require that I install dozens of other things 🙂
