The http server doesn't necessarily rewrite it in this way. It might serve a
totally different area (the liawww.epfl.ch server can be accessed as
liaftp.epfl.ch (both CNAMEs for liasun6.epfl.ch) and the http server will then
serve the FTP area (also available through the wuftpd server, of course)).
It already works across squid (and I believe it also works across Netscape's
proxy)
