Hi,
Is the response "Http 200 xxx" can be considered as successful login when it shows in the access.log?
The log example is: Get abc\mysite.com http 1.1" 200 1748"
Thank you in advance. |

Not necessarily, it depends on the type of authentication.
If Apache is doing it (Basic, Digest, dbd... the authn(z) modules) then a failure would be a 401 error.
If however abc\mysite.com is doing the authentication, then no. A 200 just means it successfully served the request, which in this case Apache would just 200 when successfully serving abc\mysite.com's error page.
A good example is right here. The forum software does the authentication and if you get your username, password or both wrong, Apache will still log a 200 when it successfully serves the forum software's page saying "Doh, you really mucked up on that try Homer!" |
