hello!

i have the following problem in my pound configuration. i want to use pound
in https mode.

so everything works fine if i use the trailing slash.

an example:

https://myserver/test/ -> works
https://myserver/test -> works not will
be redirected to
http://myserver/test/

so i have deactivated the http listener.
if i try again with the same requests i got an connection refuses.

i append an wget output so you can see that i go redirected to port 80. (i
deleted my server names)

wget https://myserver/portal
--14:13:36--  https://myserver/portal
           => `portal'
Resolving myserver... 10.200.30.5
Connecting to myserver|10.200.30.5|:443... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 302 Moved Temporarily

[following]
--14:13:36--  http://myserver/portal/
           => `index.html'

Resolving myserver... 10.200.30.5
Connecting to myserver|10.200.30.5|:80... failed: Connection refused.

if i use the ip adress in my request everything works fine:

wget --no-check-certificate https://10.200.30.5/portal
--14:17:32--  https://10.200.30.5/portal
           => `portal'

hello!

after reading forward in the nmailing list, i found that some users have
problems with the dns records.
so i have fixed my hosts entries in the testing enviroment because the
pound is currently not resolved via dns.

after fixing the hosts entry on the pound server the https:// request are
working without the trailing slash as i want.

if this could be gone into the README as an notice this would be great
because some other people are having the same problems.

best regards!
