ignoring localhost access?
Hi
Does anyone know how to stop apache from logging access from the computer on which it's hosted (localhost)? My reason for this is that access from my computer is skewing the stats of my webserver, because I'm not an external visitor. Other computers on my LAN still need to be logged, but not this one. Anyone know? Many thanks Colin |

I set the localhost IP to 192.168.1.1 (which it is), and tried both nolog and don't log, yet it STILL shows up in my access logs. I also tried "192\.168\.1\.1" which didn't work either. Any ideas? =( C. |

Is there anything else I should enable? |

SetEnvIf Remote_Addr "127\.0\.0\.1" blah and CustomLog "whatever" env=!blah Should work just as well. Jeroen. |
