Evening folks,
I have pretty high expectations for the Refresh Austin list whenever I
have a tough question, but I might have found one stump-worthy.
A couple months ago I started seeing requests in my web server access
log for "/ombudsman". I don't have an Ombudsman page, so it returned
a 404. Digging a little deeper, the same IP was repeatedly searching
for the same set of non-existent pages on my site:
/about/privacypolicy.html
/about/termsofuse.html
/audiohelp/progstream.html
/blogs
/corrections
/email
/help
/help/communityfaq.html
/music
/ombudsman
/podcast
After a bit more digging, I realized that it wasn't coming from just
one IP address. Turns out there are dozens of IP addresses all
requesting the same non-existent URLs. Each IP is scattered across
the globe without any common thread. The only user-agent listed in
each request is a member of the "Java/1.6.0" family.
I am 100% stumped on this one. All Googling for community-sourced
Java-based search spiders comes up completely empty.
Any thoughts? Solve this and I'll buy you a beer on Tuesday.
Thanks,
Mark
