While looking at the access statistics of the Query-to-map tool I discovered that a large portion of the hits are generated by one single austrian DSL IP (90000 hits yesterday (9% of all hits that day), 55000 hits so far today, ).
Seemingly random queries to lots of tools. Example:
84.114.164.84 - - [11/Jan/2009:14:03:43 +0000] "HEAD /%7Ekolossos/wp-world/umkreis.php?la=pt&lon=16.285&lat=48.134444&rang=50&map=1 HTTP/1.1" 200 0 "-" "Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/3.1" 84.114.164.84 - - [11/Jan/2009:14:03:49 +0000] "HEAD /~para/earth.php?latdegdec=48.134444&londegdec=16.285&scale=300000 HTTP/1.1" 301 0 "-" "Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/3.1" 84.114.164.84 - - [11/Jan/2009:14:03:49 +0000] "HEAD /~kolossos/wp-world/umkreis.php?la=nl&lon=16.285&lat=48.134444&rang=50&map=1 HTTP/1.1" 301 0 "-" "Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/3.1" 84.114.164.84 - - [11/Jan/2009:14:03:50 +0000] "HEAD /~kolossos/wp-world/umkreis.php?la=pt&lon=16.285&lat=48.134444&rang=50&map=1 HTTP/1.1" 301 0 "-" "Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/3.1"
What is going on here? Proxy? Daniel
P.S.: there is a webserver on that IP. Looks like a broken Mediawiki installation, a broken forum installation. No further info though.
