66.156.111.181 - - [04/Mar/2003:16:48:59 +1133] "HEAD / HTTP/1.0" 200 0 "" "Mozilla/3.0 (compatible)"
Can someone tell me what the "HEAD" means in the above access log entry? Is it something to worry about? This is not the first time the HEAD entry has appeared. thanx |

Hi there!
Although I am not 100% sure about what it is exactly 9that's bcz i do not know waht kind og log are you refering to), it probably is a misread "<HAED>" section of an HTML page.
It is nothing harmful. Just a run-time error of the script app or whatever generated that log...
However, if this appears again several times, mail me or post to my forum at: http://www.devilnet-on-line.org to see the problem again in detail...

The log is the Abyss Server Access Log. Head replaces the Get command in the log entries before and following the entry in question.
65.57.59.201 - - [04/Mar/2003:16:39:41 +1133] "GET /A-cs_pgs_rebuild/PPO_Rev/PPO_1.htm HTTP/1.1" 200 223395 "http://64.4.16.250/cgi-bin/linkrd?_lang=EN&lah=24a54d885119791d7374c5d69551d1f8&lat=1046824962&hm___action=http%3a%2f%2fchancefac%2enet%2fA%2dcs_pgs_rebuild%2fPPO_Rev%2fPPO_1%2ehtm" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Windows 95; DigExt; JUNO)"

the 200 code would indicate to me that whatever action is requested is is taking place.

HEAD are GET are verbs (or commands) that HTTP clients (such as browser) can send to web servers.
GET is the most commonly used verb. It means "send me the file". When a server receives such a request, it sends some headers contaning useful information about the file (such as its size, its last modification time, the name of the sever). The headers are followed by the file contents.
HEAD works almost as GET. The only difference is that it does not send file contents. It only sends the headers.
HEAD is useful for browsers to check the presence of a file without downloading it. It can be also used to verify that there is no new version of a file (when updating a cached version), etc...
