Hi

Im using Apache 2.2.6 with PHP 5.2.5 on WinXP SP2 32-bit.

These are the last 2 entries in my apache's error.log file

[Thu Jan 03 23:56:06 2008] [warn] (OS 64)The specified network name is no longer available. : winnt_accept: Asynchronous AcceptEx failed.
[Fri Jan 04 00:28:52 2008] [warn] (OS 64)The specified network name is no longer available. : winnt_accept: Asynchronous AcceptEx failed.

What does this mean?
Im not on an OS 64 machine, so this is obviously from another IP (PC)

Looks to me like one of the hack methods to confirm/harvest an IP or email. Via confirmation.

There has been an issue [experts-exchange.com] recently regarding attack attempt.
But wrt that error msg, I couldnt find any corresponding log in my access.log file at the same time. Though I did get quite a number of
10.12.165.3 - - [03/Jan/2008:23:59:00 +0530] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 -

a couple of mins before.
