I work with many web servers that are load balanced. I would like to be
able to test each web server individually by hitting the IP directly.
Problem is that many of my web servers are very particular about what they
see in the "Host:" header line because of their virtual hosts setting or
plugins like Siteminder. Is there a way to change the Host: header in the
HTTP request? I see that you can put additional header infomation with the
--header option, but I want to replace the default Host: header info with
my own. �I tried 'wget http://10.10.10.10 --header "Host: mysite.com"' but
as the documentation suggests, this just puts an addition line in the host
header and does not change the original "Host:" value. Can I do this with
wget?
