-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear all, Is there any easy way to change the HTTP Host: header from the client side? My Uni. Intranet is using IIS 5.0 which apparently is doing some filtering based on the "Host:" header. As a result I can't use the old trick of just SSH tunneling to the site. If I try to use the tunnel, the "Host:" line shows up as "localhost" on the request to the server and hence is redirected to some page that says there is no server here. Right now, the only trick I can pull is to set my hostname to the name of the server and add "127.0.0.1 server_name" to /etc/hosts and then then use the SSH tunnel. Then I can just goto http://server_name and it works since "Host:" is now "server_name". This is painful however since GNOME doesn't seem to handle the hostname change particularly well ... I have to logout and login after every change. I've tried digging on Google but most of the information pertain to servers not clients .. so .. my question is .. can I masquerade my HTTP "host:" header? Looking forward to your expert opinion, - -M -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (MingW32) iD8DBQFCVD6l14B2Pwzes+4RAj3rAJ0cnZPmdtqFl25YsMcGSEMdjKQ0IgCdFnS5 t5WimIUevhWSg8Qr7uoTyfQ= =9ANv -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
