If you get the latest dvp version
(http://jigsaw.w3.org/Devel/classes/19990521/)
You should be able to use a new rule of the ProxyDispatcher to access your
problem. see
http://www.w3.org/Jigsaw/Doc/Reference/org.w3c.www.protocol.http.proxy.ProxyDispatcher.html
for more info on its configuration
This is a client side component. To use it, see
http://www.w3.org/Jigsaw/Doc/User/proxy.html and, in the proxy prop, add
this filter (and remove if you want to the cache filter).
