How does this cope with multiple weblets on the same server? For
example the Computer Graphics Unit, Geology Department, MAN T&EC and
University of Manchester and Manchester Computiing Centre are all on the
same server at the same port, just in different parts of the document
tree. We would want a different name for each part.
Strikes me this could be done with rules in the config file, rather like
CERN httpd's use of pass rules.
