RE: Tux and HTTP request forwarding

Hi Ingo,

Thanks, what about turning of forwarding all together :-)
Might be nice to have something in /proc/sys/net/tux for this ?

I am setting up several Tux servers for HTTP streaming. The streaming client automatically sends a query string when it requests a file. I do not use the query string and would like to use Tux to serve the files. Currently the query string throws Tux off a little and TUX tries to forward it to a backend web server which does not exist.

right now the easiest way is to change net/tux/proto_http.c, and replace
the two occurances of:

	c == '?'

with:
	0

from this point on TUX should treat the query string as part of the URL.

btw., why do you want to do this?
