    I have seen this on our servers, starting Oct 12 with 213.165.144.xxx 
    (only one ip) and then again on the 15th from 194.236.60.xxx (also one 
    ip) .
    
    Each time they hit they sent 5 to 6 attempts within one second, all 
    looking in the same place.
    
    213.165.144.xxx - - [12/Oct/2002:05:40:01 -0500] "GET /sumthin HTTP/1.0" 
    404 1086 "-" "-"
    213.165.144.xxx - - [12/Oct/2002:05:40:01 -0500] "GET /sumthin HTTP/1.0" 
    404 1086 "-" "-"
    213.165.144.xxx - - [12/Oct/2002:05:40:01 -0500] "GET /sumthin HTTP/1.0" 
    404 1086 "-" "-"
    213.165.144.xxx - - [12/Oct/2002:05:40:01 -0500] "GET /sumthin HTTP/1.0" 
    404 1086 "-" "-"
    213.165.144.xxx - - [12/Oct/2002:05:40:01 -0500] "GET /sumthin HTTP/1.0" 
    404 1086 "-" "-"
    (6 times in all.)
    
    All logs look identical to your post.
    What do we have here ?
    
    cheers,
    cory
