HTTP does not have both host and address detail. HTTP have an URL. If a client requests http://www.tracker.com/someuniqueidentifierforchunkoffile from the proxy then the proxy will request /someuniqueidentifierforchunkoffile from www.tracker.com. If the client does direct connections (not configured for using proxy) then it MAY connect to other host and request GET /someuniqueidentifierforchunkoffile Host: www.tracker.com from there. But if that is intercepted by a intercepting HTTP proxy then the proxy will generally use the host from the Host header instead of the intercepted destination address. Regards Henrik
