Recommended Posts

I had a punk attempt to access the tiny-browser directory of a site of mine last night. If you are not familliar.. tiny browser is a Drupal extension for CMS page manipulations... GOOD THING the site doesn't run on Drupal huh lol

 

Anyway, i wanted to know how i can go about finding the IP address of the person that tried to access this file? I use AWstats, but i don't think it will be too helpful for this. It just has a list of all ip's...

 

I always hear people speaking of reading the server logs, but you can't read logs in raw form, so what gives?

 

So i'm looking for a way to search for

 

Visitor ip >> /page/they/tried/to/access.php

Says who? Of course there are also plenty of tools around for reading server logs (I think Awestats actually reads server logs) though, awk, sed & grep come to mind.
