Topic created on: July 14, 2006 08:42 CDT by 2GooD .

Apparantly Microsoft (in for example IIS and IE) has a special HTTP status (449, HTTP_STATUS_RETRY_WITH) to "Retry after doing the appropriate action". I've only found very few web references to usage of this feature:

http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/en/server/iis/htm/asp/eadg6isz.htm

http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2005/07/07/407416.aspx

http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2005/06/20/406586.aspx

Does anyone know more about this feature?

Does anyone know what the content of the 449 reply looks like? Maybe someone even can provide packet dumps?

No one knows anything about this?

Sorry, first I've heard of it.

If you want a thing well done, do it yourself... :-)

This is the reply from IIS when I followed the instructions on http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/en/server/iis/htm/asp/eadg6isz.htm.

The "ms-echo-request" header certainly at work here.

When the client has processed the above reply, it sends a new request.

Note the "Ms-Echo-Reply" header.
