    Ah, the host header is required by most web-servers. We'll try again:

    telnet 10.10.10.1 80
 Then type
GET /_layouts/images/filename.html HTTP/1.1
 Enter once
HOST: server domain
 Enter twice

Hi ArtRst Thoman, URGENT early response will be appreciated. if you are still on then can you tell me what you have done exactly to make it work. I am using iApp to configure. I have two node (servers) 10.160.0.106 & 10.160.0.107.

 

I am able to telnet on port 7002 and working okay. and also both servers returning response for below command from CLI.

 

GET http://10.160.0.106:7002/oncfo/index.html curl -v http://10.160.0.106:7002/oncfo/index.html

 

however when I do tcpdump and surprised to see that there is no response of default monitor GET command.

 

monitor string looks like below. GET /oncfo/index.html

 

but when I tried from CLI, the below output in tcpdump. GET /oncfo/index.html HTTP/1.1

 

User-Agent: curl/7.19.7 (i686-redhat-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.19.7 OpenSSL/0.9.8u zlib/1.2.3 libidn/0.6.5

 

Host: 10.160.0.107:7002

 

Accept: /

 

however the Pool is still down due to Monitor.
