Thanks for the tip, but looks like no love from the MT proxy redirect. Which is stupid, because if you don't redirect & simply deny them access, the MT shows it's default page which tells them where they were trying to go and that access is denied.
Oh well.

I doubt it. The hotspot code replaces certain tags in its own template files.

I'm assuming you're having the proxy redirect to some CGI script. If so,= you could try checking the HTTP Referer header. It's possible that in this context (transparent redirect from proxy to another URL) the browser= and/or proxy will report the originally requested URL in that header. Here's a quick perl script that you could try (I don't have a proxy setup to test it)... #!/usr/bin/perl use CGI; my $cgi =3D new CGI(); print $cgi->header('text/html') . "\n"; print "You came from here: " . $cgi->referer() . "\n"; exit(0); Regards, -Kristian _______________________________________________ Mikrotik mailing list [email protected] http://www.butchevans.com/mailman/listinfo/mikrotik
