    Hi;

    I have changed the mod_security setting 3 days ago. i was looking for the mod_security logs.

    2008-05-14 06:45:48 74.125.16.35 /article-title.html mysite.com Access denied with code 406 (phase 2). Pattern match "Linux" at REQUEST_HEADERS:User-Agent.

    74.125.16.35 is one of the ips of google.

    the related rule of mod_security is below.

    SecRule HTTP_User-Agent "Linux"

    can somebody explain me what it means? does it block the google crawl?

    Thanks
