What worked was to get the full redirection the browser. I did a wget from my hobbit server to download the SGML file. Then I did a string match on text that I found in that file. My first string match was not in the SGLM file. It's a picture included by the Java script.
Thanks for your help.

Can you try
10.10.5.173 foobar.pnl.gov <http://pnl.gov/> # class:server cont=WebMail;https://foobar.pnl.gov <http://pnl.gov/> /index.html;WebMail.Access
or instead of index.html put in what file is DocumentIndex (Apache term). I'm guessing the IIS server isn't redirecting properly.

Folks
I set up a check to match a string for a web email server in my
bb-hosts file to ensure that the web server was functioning correctly The check looked like: 10.10.5.173 foobar.pnl.gov # class:server cont=WebMail;https://foobar.pnl.gov;WebMail.Access The check worked fine until this past weekend when the email server was migrated from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2007. Now instead of an index.html file being downloaded, I get a SGML document. Even though the same string is in the title tag in the document, the check fails. Can someone suggest a way to check that the page has properly loaded? I apologize if you have received this posting twice. There were network problems when I sent it out originally. I'm not sure it got out. Thanks for your help. Regards, Cathy --- Cathy L. Smith IT Engineer Pacific Northwest National Laboratory cathy.smith at pnl.gov 509.375.2687
