access_log

Unread post by NightStorm »

Anyone know where I can locate the access log for IP-based website access?
I had someone httpd flooding my server by using an IP address as the URL instead of using a domain name, so the logs are not available in the httpd/vhosts/*/statistics/logs directory... and I can't see any evidence of it in /etc/httpd/logs/access_log either.
Any other ideas on how I can access the logs of this?

if they're just doing a SYN flood, then its not going to get logged by access_log. Thats only going to log the actual web request (GET, POST, etc). You're definitely looking in the right place for that (/var/log/httpd/)
