> Key: HTTPCLIENT-1123
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1123
> Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: HttpClient
> Reporter: Alin Vasile
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: dns_overrider_poc.patch, dns_overrider_poc.patch

> When working with HttpClient in restrictive environments, where the user doesn't have the permissisions to edit the local /etc/hosts file or the DNS configuration, can be eased with an DNS Overrider capability.
> This can be useful with JMeter which can follow redirects automatically and resolve some of the redirected hosts against its configuration. Another example is a custom forward proxy, written in Java and based on httpclient, which can be deployed is such a restricted environment that would ease the development of various web solutions for some developers.
