For Mozilla, please do install the http-headers add-in, so you can see what is being transmitted. >From RFC4007 section 11.2, referring to %zone_id; It cannot be assumed that indices are common across all nodes in a zone (see Section 6). Hence, the format MUST be used only within a node and MUST NOT be sent on the wire unless every node that interprets the format agrees on the semantics. I read this to say that zone_id's should not be propogated in httpd headers. There is another question of whether the %zone_id should be permitted in proxy machine names, listen directives, etc. Can you spell out for us if Mozilla and IE refuse to let you specify the %zone_id in the request, and if so, do they try to pass it on in the Host; header (look using common sniffing tools such as the http headers add-in)? --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
