server exclusions

Post by Thunderstone »




I have a server that I want to exclude from walks. I'm using a central
config file, so I put in the line:

xhttp://servername.foo.edu

Turns out that that machine is running more than one webserver, and on
non-standard ports. Is the line above sufficient to exclude *all* servers
on that machine, or do I have to exclude each port number explicitly?

Thanks,
Susan

Normally gw won't go offsite. You must be using some widening
option like -o or -domain or -network.

You'll need to specify the individual ports as the exclusions are
based on the webserver and each port is a distinct webserver.
xhttp://servername.foo.edu
xhttp://servername.foo.edu:81
xhttp://servername.foo.edu:82
