    Hello Everyone,

    While looking at my logs I find error 404's for bots trying to access robotsxx.txt tiles and other variants. After searching for robotsxx, I thought I would toss this question about there: are these misguided bots or what?

    Thanks,

    tom

    yes. The only valid name is robots.txt Most robots.txt validators will allow you to validate a file named something else - but only so you can test before you go live.
