Hello Dmitry,
The patch worked fine for me. Thanks for this. I'll continue to test and
if it uncovers anything unusual I'll let you know.
Thanks for your help and prompt fix.
Regards,
Mohammed Rakhada

This is a bug indeed. Polygraph never sends Host header in CONNECT
requests, though RFC 2616 requires client to send Host header in any
HTTP/1.1 request. Apparently, many proxies ignore the missing Host
header and use the URI.
Please try the attached patch and let me know if it helps.

(http-connect-host-header-v4.4.0.patch)
http-connect-host-header-v4.4.0.patch - patch for Web Polygraph v4.4.0
Send Host header in HTTP CONNECT requests.
Per RFC 2616, a client MUST include a Host header field in all
HTTP/1.1 request messages. Before the change, Polygraph did not
send Host header in CONNECT requests.
