I have a situation that I not sure how to salve.
I want to monitor each node of our web server farm
right now I can monitor the main address of each site without a problem but there is not a way to monitor each node.
example
https:\\petrochem.cpscreen.net ( works without a problem)
but there is no way to monitor the 4 servers behind the man address
because they are using host headers i ip address lots of websites.
The way I do it manually is go to the server and enter the local ip of that site in the hostfile and then when I go to petrochem.cpscreen.net from that server I only get the node I want.
I am guessing this would require a option to set the ip to connect to and also the host header its going to go out on.
Any suggestions?
thanks
Jacob

I think, you may use "Optional headers" option, provided by "URL" test method. For instance, you may specify IP-address into "URL" field and set host header into "Optional headers" area, like the following:
Quote from the manual:

=========================
Optional headers
You may specify optional HTTP headers which will be added to the request. For example you can define cookies using string like "Cookie: name1=value1; name2=value2; name3=value3". When you send data to the server using POST method, HostMonitor automatically inserts " Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" header.
