Re: Does the Windows AUX bug affect Web servers also?

["Michael Bemmerl" <security () astrobox net>]

I tested it with Apache 1.3.27 on my win-box with
GET/POST/PUT/OPTIONS/-requests. It just displays me the default 403
error-page.
Here the line of the error.log-logfile:
[Wed Jul 09 21:40:23 2003] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Filename is not valid:
d:/inetserv-docroot/aux
