status code 200 on http "CONNECT" attempts

[pyroskliq]

I've been looking for a couple of days on various forums, and can't find a real answer to my question. Has anybod seen this behavior?

I'm running apache 1.3.27 on FreeBSD 5.0 w/ mod_php4, mod_gzip, and mod_perl. I've had this running in it's current configuration for quite some time. Starting on the 27th of April I've started getting entries like this in my access log:

64.70.XX.XXX - - [28/Apr/2003:15:58:39 -0400] "CONNECT 64.12.XXX.XX:25 HTTP/1.0" 200 28445 "-" "-"
64.70.XX.XXX - - [28/Apr/2003:15:59:44 -0400] "CONNECT 64.12.XXX.XX:25 HTTP/1.0" 200 28445 "-" "-"
64.70.XX.XXX - - [28/Apr/2003:15:59:46 -0400] "CONNECT 64.12.XXX.XX:25 HTTP/1.0" 200 28445 "-" "-"
64.70.XX.XXX - - [28/Apr/2003:16:00:37 -0400] "CONNECT 64.12.XXX.XX:25 HTTP/1.0" 200 28445 "-" "-"
64.70.XX.XXX - - [28/Apr/2003:16:00:50 -0400] "CONNECT 64.12.XXX.XX:25 HTTP/1.0" 200 28445 "-" "-"

I've seen similar log entries, but they all returned 502's or something similar. I don't have mod_proxy loaded and have no use for it. I do have smtp enabled for local users, but don't allow any relaying.

Can anybody explain this to me? Thanks.

Thanks Wullie.

The workaround described on that page worked.
