This is typical of a web proxy server.  The IP is the IP of the proxy,
not the client workstation where the query is generated.

Hi;

sorry if this is off-topic, but I found a couple of strange requests

in one of my logfiles. It looks like a browser changing its own ID 
according to the file requested. Like this:

207.241.180.157 - - [11/Feb/2001:10:08:53 -0500] "GET 
/cover/fieldserv.gif HTTP/1.0" 200 698 "-" "Mozilla/3.01 
(compatible;)"
207.241.180.157 - - [11/Feb/2001:10:10:35 -0500] "GET /home.css 
HTTP/1.0" 200 636 "http://www.remosa-valves.com/" "Mozilla/4.0 
(compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows 95)"

and again later

198.23.26.253 - - [11/Feb/2001:11:09:05 -0500] "GET /solutions.html 
HTTP/1.0" 200 9390 "-" "Mozilla/3.01 (compatible;)"
198.23.26.253 - - [11/Feb/2001:11:09:06 -0500] "GET /valves.css 
HTTP/1.0" 200 2832 "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; MSN 2.6; 
Windows 98; DigExt)"

Does anybody have an explanation?

Also: is there any chance to resolve IPs like
apnc208.216.216.211.in-addr.arpa?
I'm finding them more and more often.

thanks in advance
