The vast majority of visits to my web server are:
- Me
- People or bots looking for vulnerabilities
- Web crawlers
with about 0.5% of traffic being legitimate, not-me visitors.
@abucci Yeah, that sounds about right. I turned on access logging for a week about a year ago. I never did the math, but it was pretty much just me and a collection of robots.
This is why I'm moving a bunch of my "sites" to basically internal-only apps on my Sandstorm server. I never really needed anyone else to have access anyways.
@abucci @mckinley @ocdtrekkie I just had a look and saw empty request lines or just HELP, because my quickly thrown together parser didn't expect this sort of crap. Any particular tools you use to analyze your logs with?
@lyse A week was only a few kilobytes of logs for me, so I just used grep and a text editor. @adi wrote a suite of command line tools for analyzing different web server log formats if you're interested: fl, cl, and cbl

That's exactly what I expected from both of you, @abucci and @mckinley. :-) Ah, right, didn't think of cbl and friends. When I quickly counted by HTTP status code, I thought it would be nice to interactively drill down further. But I couldn't answer my question of what I actually want to see or look out for, so I stopped.
