And the system administrator cannot be convinced to add configuration directives for your virtual host or anything like that? Hmm... Do you have access to PHP? I think you might be able to get away with a small PHP script that uses an HTTP include. I think that would be easier than writing a Perl-based (or worse, C-based) CGI program. > So it has to be something we can install in the cgi-bin directory.

Using PHP, you should be able to use the HttpMessage (http://php.net/manual/en/http.HttpRequest.php) object and stuff it with cookies, headers, parameters, and the request body from the incoming request. Make the request and stream the result. Note that I've never tried this and so I could be completely wrong. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFF7teH9CaO5/Lv0PARAkEkAKCP2XAZXdt7rFeIipMnLw3w2j1D/ACfadU9 uYc4R2TqzAZGR2igDXj7G/8= =1MHZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
