Getting "Bad Request" when using M/Monit over port forwarding w/ NetGear

Tue Apr 29 02:25:00 CEST 2008

Guys, sorry for the barrage of emails and questions, but that's a
noobie for you :-) I figured since the product in alpha I might as
well keep shouting out :)

So I can now successfully see hosts on my local network, and receive
the events back, even though I have an alternate port specified for
M/Monit.

However, when I add the port forwarding rule to my Netgear WTG router,
and then try to access M/Monit from outsite of my firewall, I get the
following error in the browser:

Bad Request
Invalid Cookie header Zild/2.0

A similar error appears in the error_log:

2008-04-28 17:15:40 [client X.X.X.X] HTTP 400 Bad Request (Invalid
Cookie header)

This is happening when using Firefox or Safari on Mac OS-X 10.5.2

If I telnet directly to the port (from outside) I do get the HTML back
(I've replaced the real IP with X.X.X.X).

Any idea what's going on and how to fix it?

Thanks
