[hobbit] Check for string on web site failing

[Smith, Cathy]

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,
