Error Log

[edwurster]

Two-part question:

1. Is the error log accessible outside of CPANEL?

2. I'm getting errors like the following:
[error] [client x.x.x.x] File does not exist: /home/account/public_html/U16F05_files/editdata.mso
[error] [client x.x.x.x] File does not exist: /home/account/public_html/U16F05_files/filelist.xml
[error] [client x.x.x.x] File does not exist: /home/account/public_html/_vti_bin/shtml.exe/_vti_rpc I tried to redirect these to an empty file, but that doesn't seem to work. Any ideas?

1. There is a thread somewhere about that. idesign wrote a script to grab the error log without using cpanel.

2. it is looking for a windows exploit. The shtml.exe/whatever will return the path to an IIS server...ugh! and will also return the local path on apache with frontpage extensions running.
I think the others are looking to exploit xenu link sleuth, it is a windows platform website link checker. http://home.snafu.de/tilman/xenulink.html

Another fine example of why to never use a windows server or frontpage extensions.
