The proxy seems quite robust about this and works when connecting to other sites on non-standard ports. (Its Tim Meadowcroft's HttpSniffer, about 1000 lines of densely packed perl and has been used as the basis for a few opensource http diagnostic projects) > However, the question remains as to why you are even trying to use a > proxy for this - Tomcat 4's filters give you a good opportunity to read and > log all parts of the request. This is good advice and probably the best course to take... The truth is that I am shamelessly looking for a quick fix to help me debug a webapp which is incidentally hosted on ApacheJserv - I thought that a quick verification of the proxy on Tomcat would allow me to get started - short cuts make long delays.
