http_trace.nasl
Hello list,

It seems that it is now fashionable to chain HTTP reverse proxies. So
if anybody has such a strange configuration, I'd appreciate help on
this plugin.

I planned to detect this with the TRACE method, but my code is buggy.
From my home machine, where my silly ISP force me to go through a
transparent proxy, it works fine with www.microsoft.com, but it loops
on www.nessus.org

The buggy code has been disabled, you have to remove the line :
exit(0); # broken at this time

I wonder... Will this give more information than the Via header?
