But if both are equally acceptable, I think we definitely need to err on the side of using the port the original request did. Consider the case of that port being explicitly punched through a firewall; by redirecting to a different port even though the original was valid, we may end up replying with a redirect the client can't reach. > Unless you want to code this, I can have something committed today. Go for it. You're a lot more familiar with that code than am I. -- #ken P-)} Ken Coar, Sanagendamgagwedweinini http://Golux.Com/coar/ Author, developer, opinionist http://Apache-Server.Com/ "Millennium hand and shrimp!"
