Hi All,

I am using pound ver 2.6  on Ubuntu 16.04 as a reverse SSL proxy.  I am try=
ing to access a custom webdav module which requires me to pass in a paramet=
er  in the url which conatins the period charcter ("sitename.x.x.x").

So the url looks like https://drive.x.x.x/sitename.x.x.x

The custom Webdav module picks up the sitename.x.x.x string and then querie=
s a SQL table to find out the physical path for webdav to use.

The custom Webdav module functions perfectly if there are no period charact=
ers in the url after the first "/" i.e. https://drive.x.x.x/sitename

The same custom Webdav module functions perfectly behind an f5 device in an=
other installation.  In this config, the pound server is doing the job of t=
he f5 device so I am wanting to understand if it is related to the headers =
returned from pound to the custom Webdav module.

The ultimate question is how does pound handle a url that has the form http=
://x.x.x.x/y.y.y.y?  do the period characters cause issues if they appear a=
fter the "/" in the url?

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Cheers
Scott
