[users@httpd] 501 - new script kiddie activity

request header with control chars looks like

193.144.78.177 - - [27/Jan/2003:20:00:01 +0100] "�" 501 - "-" "-"
217.5.85.153 - - [27/Jan/2003:20:00:09 +0100] "�" 501 - "-" "-"
217.81.181.63 - - [27/Jan/2003:20:00:10 +0100] "�" 501 - "-" "-"
80.146.135.29 - - [27/Jan/2003:20:00:25 +0100] "�" 501 - "-" "-"

and corresponding entries in the error_log
[Mon Jan 27 20:07:58 2003] [error] [client 217.231.252.164] Invalid method in 
request �
[Mon Jan 27 20:08:07 2003] [error] [client 80.144.163.42] Invalid method in 
request �

doing a
grep 501 access_log |wc -l
     344
grep 501 access_log |cut -f 1 -d "-" |sort -u|wc -l
      60

until yet :-
shouldn't be a problem;
server-status shows a few long R
but
 CPU Usage: u.36 s.32 cu0 cs0 - .000151% CPU load
 .00124 requests/sec - 1 B/second - 1140 B/request

critical performance load would be about 1000 rps on this apache server...

no -
the ssl logs are clear;
some actual results:
grep 501 access_log |wc -l
     908
grep 501 access_log |cut -f 1 -d "-" |sort -u|wc -l
      98

the 98 unique IP addresses are mostly in the 217 and 80 ranges, e.g.
80.128.143.159
80.128.18.231
80.128.230.117
217.84.153.192
217.84.189.53
217.84.37.75

Your HTTPS requests seem to be going to HTTP virtual host. SSL virtual 
host configuration problem...
