As I said in my previous email to the list, I *think* if you use virtual hosts and your "real" sites are NOT the first real host, then you are forcing clients to speak HTTP/1.1, thus forcing the Host header to be sent. If you then put in your first, default virtualhost: RedirectPermanent / http://realserver/ then you protect yourself from "gobbledygook.bleh" because that will be sent to the default virtualhost which will redirect. Right? If so, a bit convoluted and not accessible to the novice. Perhaps a "Tips & Tricks" chapter to the manual? Daniel Popowich --------------- http://home.comcast.net/~d.popowich/mpservlets/
