Long hostnames

http://www.llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.co.uk/

This exists and works (though not under Netscape 4.04! Lynx is fine,
though). At minimum, mod_proxy seems to choke on it, though.

I'm getting:

from the Netscape Proxy (firewall) host.

This is with a chain of two Apache Hosts (both as proxy) and the
Netscape Proxy as firewall.

    Client <--> Apache-A <--> Apache-B <--> Netscape <--> Internet

Both Apache's log:
139.25.105.242 - - [17/Mar/1998:17:47:33 +0100] "GET http://www.llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.co.uk/ HTTP/1.0" 500 479
(un-truncated). This leads me to believe that the error is not in the
Apache Proxy. Maybe Netscape fails?!

Ignore that. I was screwing something else up. Sorry!
