Displaying HTTP connection information

Information in the /etc/log/httpd.log file

You can read the /etc/log/httpd.log file if you are interested in the following types of information for each HTTP connection:

• IP address of HTTP client.
• Name of authorized users, if the requested page is protected, making requests. The names are in the /etc/httpd.passwd file. If the page is not protected, dashes appear instead of a name.
• Time of connection in dd/mm/yy:hh:mm:ss format; gmt is used.
• Request line from connecting host, for example, get /netapp.html.
• STATUS code returned by the server, as defined in the HTTP 1.0 specifications.
• TOTAL bytes sent in response by the filer, not including the MIME header.
