Everything is fine, except I have in httpd access_log lot of requests like this: ::1 - - [06/Feb/2008:13:43:58 -0500] "OPTIONS * HTTP/1.0" 200 - ::1 - - [06/Feb/2008:13:43:59 -0500] "OPTIONS * HTTP/1.0" 200 - ::1 - - [06/Feb/2008:13:44:00 -0500] "OPTIONS * HTTP/1.0" 200 - They are appearing all the time (looks like one request every second). Output of netstat for connections from ::1 looks like this: # netstat -na | grep ::1 tcp6 0 0 ::1.57505 ::1.80 TIME_WAIT tcp6 0 0 ::1.51750 ::1.80 TIME_WAIT tcp6 0 0 ::1.53971 ::1.80 TIME_WAIT tcp6 0 0 ::1.58272 ::1.80 TIME_WAIT tcp6 0 0 ::1.58271 ::1.80 TIME_WAIT tcp6 0 0 ::1.58270 ::1.80 TIME_WAIT tcp6 0 0 ::1.58269 ::1.80 TIME_WAIT tcp6 0 0 ::1.58268 ::1.80 TIME_WAIT I would like to know why is this happening, what is and why sending this request. Thanks in advance.
