Currently, ZServer adhers closely to the HTTP RFC by allowing only requests of the form '[METHOD] [/path] HTTP/[version]'.

Proxy requests

...

are of the form '[METHOD] [Full URL] HTTP/[version]', where [Full URL] is something like http://a.host.address/path.

Oops. The current HTTP protocol (1.1) specifically states that a server MUST be able to accept a fully qualified URL (this is in an attempt to get clients across the internet to STOP sending just the path in the request).

I never said that it adheres to the HTTP/1.1 RFC =) I have understood that medusa (on which ZServer is build), is still somewhat far removed from full compliance. -- Martijn Pieters, Software Engineer | Digital Creations http://www.digicool.com | Creators of Zope http://www.zope.org | mailto:mj@digicool.com ICQ: 4532236 | PGP: http://wwwkeys.nl.pgp.net:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xA8A32149 -------------------------------------------
