If you actually want the IP, resolve the host header would give you that.
I' m only interested in the hostname.
How safe is the assumtion that the Host header will be there? Is it part of the HTTP/1.1 spec? And does it mean all "pre 1.1" clients will fail? Hmm, maybe I should look on the wire whats really happening...
The second form of HTTP request without the host part is for compatability of pre-HTTP/1.1 standard. All modern web browser should send the Host header.
