Summary: check_http does not send port in Host field of GET request

Initial Comment:

I need the port reflected in the Host: field of the GET
request. Siteminder uses this info in applying security
authorizations.

here's my check_http version: check_http
(nagios-plugins 1.3.1) 1.24.2.4


Here's ngrep sniffs showing the request to the web
server from check_http and links.

$ check_http -H msp21754 -p 61616 -u /

T 10.163.68.117:49879 -> 10.163.180.47:61616 [AP]
  GET / HTTP/1.0..Host: msp21754..User-Agent:
check_http/1.24.2.4 (nagios-plugins ).


$ links --source http://msp21754:61616/
T 10.163.68.117:49866 -> 10.163.180.47:61616 [AP]
  GET / HTTP/1.1..Host: msp21754:61616..User-Agent:

I can work around the problem by specifying the IP to
connect to with -I and putting host:IP in the -H parameter:

$check_http -I 10.163.180.47 -H msp21754:61616 -p 61616
-u /

T 10.163.68.117:49894 -> 10.163.180.47:61616 [AP]
  GET / HTTP/1.0..Host: msp21754:61616..User-Agent:
check_http/1.24.2.4 (nagios-plugins )....
