you request www.domain.com/whatever proxy directs to www2.domain.com/whatever
user always sees the domain they type, but coldfusion sees what the proxy redirects to. Thus if coldFusion uses server_name it will us ethe wrong address as it uses the proxy address. Damian needs the address that is in the browser. -----Original Message----- From: Justin MacCarthy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 12 September 2002 13:33 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ cf-dev ] server_name I'm confused by this... DNS name www.whatever.com -> Proxy webserver 1 Proxy webserver 2 Proxy webserver 3 So SERVER_NAME should aways be whatever.com ??? Unless, when you go to www.whatever.com you get *redirected* to http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/whatever or http://proxy1.whatever.com In this case you chould use the HTTP_REFERER possibly. HTTP_HOST should give the server IP address if thats any help.
