I just tested with my own virtual server setup, and splitting the Host:
header on a continued line:
# telnet ... 80
...
GET / HTTP/1.1
Host:
yyy:80
HTTP/1.0 200 OK
...
Suppose "xxx" is the default virtual server, and I requested "yyy" --
the response I got back was for server "xxx". If I don't split the
Host: header and have it as all one line, it serves back the appropriate
page for server "yyy".
This might be an issue with the leading SP or HT not being trimmed
properly, or something else -- I'll have to investigate further.
