Justin et al,
That is promising, but I can't alter any of the request parameters before the filter has a chance to record them.
I haven't tried this solution yet, but I believe URL rewriting will change the request params to reflect the new target. This could work if my filter was run before the URL rewriting, but I am using an output filter (e.g. PerlOutputFilterHandler). I might be able to split my handler into input and output handlers, but that approach will likely have consequences of it's own.
Any other thoughts?
Thanks for your time,
Erik

The logs contain a number of applications that I don't have deployed, I just need something to respond to the request. The filter inspects the request params, but doesn't care about the content of the response. JMeter will want a 200 return code though.

Unless I'm misunderstanding the task, a simple RewriteRule will
accomplish this.
RewriteRule .* /cgi-bin/helloworld.cgi [L]
