Removing the Host HTTP from URL

Overview

This article provides information on how to remove the Host HTTP from the URL address. This is useful when third-party software is used to submit HTTP requests.

For example:

Request URL: http://domain.com/always-theme.jpg
Request Version: HTTP/1.0

Kerio Control forwards it to WAN as:

Request URL: /always-theme.jpg
Request Version: HTTP/1.0

 

 

Preconditions

SSH access to Kerio Control.

 

Process

  1. Once logged in using SSH, navigate to the /opt/kerio/winroute folder:

    cd /opt/kerio/winroute
  2. Execute the following commands:

    • ./tinydbclient "update ProxyHTTP set RemoveHostFromURL=0"
    • /etc/boxinit.d/60winroute restart

      remove_host.png

      NOTE: The last command restarts the Kerio Control engine.

 

Confirmation

The host URL is now fully seen in the HTTP URL request.
