hi!
a new NTLM connection really opens first 2 denied responses,
which are stored in the access.log????
can i do some kind of prevent writing these 2 senseless entries?
in my opinion, the access.log is growing extremly big and i can't
imagine that its usefull for log-examination when there is so much
... tcp/denied for anonymous user
kind regards,
Andreas

NTLM authentication is connection-oriented (which is by
itself a violation of the most sacred HTTP standards).
Every time a new TCP connection is made to the server, a
new authentication is performed. That operation involves
2 407/denied responses before the user's credentials can
be obtained.
It's brain-dead, but that's the way it is.
