Hello all,
    Thanks for the great software! It's solved several problems for me at
work and continues to get better.
    But I am having some problems with 2.1.6. From what I can tell my config
file below is correct. Here is a simplified pound.cfg file:

-------------
Alive 10
LogFacility local7
LogLevel 3
ListenHTTP
        Address 192.168.41.28
        Port    80
End
Service
        Url "^/listitem*"
        BackEnd
                Address backend1.example.com
                Port 80
                TimeOut 180
                Priority 9
                HAport 7
        End
        Emergency
                Address emergency.example.com
        End
End
Service
        BackEnd
                Address backend1.example.com
                Port 80
                TimeOut 180
                HAPort 7
        End
        Emergency
                Address emergency.example.com
        End
End
-------------

    When I run pound with it, I get this error:
-------
[root(at)maui pound]# !p
pound -c -v -f /etc/pound/pound.cfg
line 12: Port is supported only for INET back-ends
------- 

    Any suggestions?

> Hello all,[...]

Does backend1.example.com resolv to an IP address? Otherwise Pound assumes
it's a Unix-domain socket and therefore doesn't allow a port to be
configured. Check with

host backend1.example.com

or

nslookup backend1.example.com
that the name resolves correctly at runtime to an IP address.

Regards,
Simon

Duh! Thanks! I was testing my production configuration on a staging test
server and I don't have the same host names in my staging environment.
    Thanks for the help.
