[zeromq-dev] Website For Windows Installers (miru.hk) Is Down

[Steven McCoy]

It is 97.107.136.71 for IPv4 and 2600:3c03:0:0:f03c:91ff:fe89:7488 for
IPv6, however your understanding of HTTP is limited to version 1.0 of the
protocol for which each site must have a unique IP address.  HTTP 1.1
introduced the concept of name-based virtual hosting
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_hosting> so that multiple sites can
be hosted on a single IP address and enable the vast swath of shared
hosting services now available on the Internet.  A HTTP 1.1 request looks
like this ( for the URL http://www.example.com/ ):

GET / HTTP/1.1
Host: www.example.com


Compared with the previous version which only provided the path:

GET / HTTP/1.0


Thus it is necessary to provide a hostname in the request otherwise you may
receive a response for a different website.  In the case of
http://97.107.136.71/ you will see the stock files for the nginx webserver
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nginx>.
