You might check the .htaccess file for errors if you have a custom error page setup. You might also take a look at /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log for the exact path where the error is.

how can we find what site this is coming from

Try:

find /home -name '.htaccess' -printf "\"%p\"\n" | xargs grep '401 http' /dev/null

If that doesn't work, just look for the 401's:

find /home -name '.htaccess' -printf "\"%p\"\n" | xargs grep '401' /dev/null

well this is really a mess up on whomevers part..

this is what it was with my server

a site used the cpanel redirect from there cpanel to write 2 permanent redircts that wrote to the .htaccess file in there root, so why this done what it was doing is beyound me, I deleted the htaccess file and the errors stop, this little thing crashed our server twice since they done whatever it was in that redirect part of there cpanel
