[proxyTools-users] More Fiddling With CGI [now is error detected]

[Michael F. <Mic...@tb...>]

My cgi proxy is the James Marshalls one

This is my CGIAmbles.txt

#Format of entries: firewall, preamble, postamble
#localProxy will request $preamble.escaped($url).$postamble
#Use the first line that matches our firewall, or use '*' (all
firewalls).

*.http://******.com/cgiproxy/nph-proxy.pl/000100A/http/

It expects the URL to be minus the http:// - I`ll try changing that last
entry to

*.http://******.com/cgiproxy/nph-proxy.pl/000100A/

and see if it works better .....

Am I doing this right  ?

As a `quick fix` for getting up and running this is great Wayne.

Oops just spotted *.http://etc should be *, http://etc, which might help
- will try again and repost result - the URL format is still slightly
different though.
