i've got apache offering ssl on port :443, but haven't published that fact anywhere -- yet i've gotten a hit from mit.edu, and it's not even a from-the-top entry?
i've got apache-perl going, and mod_ssl is even cooperating. so, all is wonderful in linux-land... the secure port is not published anywhere on any pages on the rest of my site, so i'm testing and plugging away all by myself without any interlopers cluttering up my traffic -- or so i thought: <snip> [19/Feb/2003:15:15:45 -0600] 192.168.0.5 TLSv1 RC4-MD5 "GET /search/go?q=w&t=*&x=y HTTP/1.1" 10947 [19/Feb/2003:15:16:33 -0600] 192.168.0.5 TLSv1 RC4-MD5 "GET /search/go?q=w&t=*&x=y HTTP/1.1" 10968 [19/Feb/2003:15:18:15 -0600] 192.168.0.5 TLSv1 RC4-MD5 "GET /search/go?q=w&t=*&x=y HTTP/1.1" 10941 [19/Feb/2003:15:18:39 -0600] 192.168.0.5 TLSv1 RC4-MD5 "GET /search/go?q=w&t=*&x=y HTTP/1.1" 3523 heavy testing, as you can see -- the byte count changes altho the request stays the same. :) at any rate, the log continues...
