  I think this is the expected behaviour.
  You can disable automatic relocation (FollowRelocation property) or use
the
  location change event to know your request has been redirected.

 I don't think so. I get a 302 status code but in that case it doesn't mean
that
 what I'm asking for is moved to a different url, but is a trick of the
 provider to tell the user that the domain is wrong. Practically I get a
302 and
 then a 200 (if the redirection is followed) instead a 404.

I understand, but as far as the HTTP component is concerned, it is the
expected behaviour. The problems is at the provider. His trick is designed
for a human, not a program.

Yes, I know. I'm only asking because this service seems to become more common,
and maybe there is some standard (for example a specific header) to know that
it is not a normal redirect. But examining it they are not.

To disable this feature I must explicit exchange the primary dns with the
secondary. Since I cannot change it on the router, I should disable the dhcp on
every pc :-(

 On the same pc using a virtual machine (XPpro SP3) this (the redirection to
 my
 provider) doesn't happen. It is strange, isn't it?

Ignore this sentence, it works in the VM exactly the same way.

This happen if I ask for example http://www.wrongdomain.net
If I ask for http://www.wrongdomain.net/adocuemtn.htm I get a 200 and the
content is: The requested URL was not found

:-(

Subject: [twsocket] Bad http redirection


 Hello,

 today I discovered a potential serious problem.

 In my system (Vista HP SP1) when I try to get a wrong url I get a page 
 from my
 provider with some suggestions of corrected link.
 When I do this with HttpCli I see that the first request get a 302 and 
 then
 automatically retry using the redirection link. At this point it get the 
 page
 from my provider and the status code is 200.
 So what happen is that I request something but I get a something else, and 
 I'm
 not able to know that because the status code is 200.

 What do you think?

 On the same pc using a virtual machine (XPpro SP3) this (the redirection 
 to my
 provider) doesn't happen. It is strange, isn't it?


 Bye, Maurizio.
