Like Jim just said... All initial requests are made anonymously. You¹ll see
that in the log. It doesn¹t mean that the request was successful. It also
depends on what app is making the request. The general question was ³why am
I seeing anonymous in my logs.² The general answer is ³all browser requests
are initially made anonymously.² But it could also be your app. For
instance, my bank allows us to make deposits by just ³scanning² in received
checks with this little scanner they give us. We keep the checks- but when
the app posts to the bank the app itself is too stupid to be able to
authenticate, so it always makes requests that are, to ISA, anonymous. I
had to work around that. Stuff like that.
