We have come across a problem in our testing relating to the INCLUDE and EXCLUDE urls in policy reference files: The question is, should the urls contained in these be matched case insensitive or case sensitive. There seem to be problems associated with both alternatives: 1. If you require case sensitivity, then if the user accesses a Microsoft based server with the wrong case, the policy will not be found. For example if I try to access www.microsoftserver.com/testPage.html which is actually at www.microsoftserver.com/testpage.html And my policyreference file contains <INCLUDE>/testpage.html</INCLUDE> 2. If you do not require case sensitivity, then on a Unix based server, there could conceivably be different policies applying to files which differ only by case for example <INCLUDE>/testpage.html</INCLUDE> <EXCLUDE>/testPage.html</EXCLUDE> What is the policy on this? Thanks Giles Hogben
