I don't understand why you think so. If the '/' url is handled by a mod_perl enable server, then mod_perl will show up in the headers, proxy server or not. Sure, there'll be some servers where you can't see that it's handled by mod_perl, but I doubt that it's all that many. $ lwp-request -e -d -S 'http://dev.perl.org/' | grep ^Server Server: Apache/1.3.26 (Unix) mod_perl/1.27 - ask -- ask bjoern hansen, http://askbjoernhansen.com/ !try; do();
