>>> Not sure how I can solve this IE issue via SA..... I don't disagree. I have now tried on a desktop with firefox and it operates as I would expect. Unfortunately we can't really use Firefox - don't have it installed on my desktop ( most desktops here) 'cause our PACS needs IE and with FireFox installed IE can no longer run PACS - no doubt another IE quirk.
My first statement was: >>> I don't think it is anything with SAWeb per se, because I can fire off a >>> wget and >>> switch an item to and from maintenance - just about has to be some 'save me >>> from myself' feature of IE. >>>So somehow IE is something weird in the caching That probably explains why it would work when I used FQDN instead of hostname - just cached a different url. Just some background as to what I was trying to accomplish. This set of devices, and the template generated web page will be monitoring number of devices on a drug dispensing system. I wanted the functionality for the pharmacy to be able to set a device to maintenance if they were going to take it off line. I had all the parts in place - it was a little clunky because it kicked open the SAWeb page rather than just do the action but at least they could have had ability to turn off and on as needed. Can you think of any other way to skin that cat: Allow users to control Active/Maintenance via the template. <TD><FONT face="verdana" Size="1"><Center> <saif sa_status is maintenance><a href="http://amber2.famhs.org/saweb?uid=<sa_uid>&active=true" target="_blank">Set Active</a></saif> <saif sa_status not maintenance><sa_checkresponse>-<sa_stats_uptime> <a href="http://amber2.famhs.org:4310/saweb?uid=<sa_uid>&active=false" target="_blank">Set Maintenance</a></saif> </Center></FONT> </TD> Bottom line - I will live with it.

However when using IE I do get the issue. Which is strange as in both cases the same "page" is generated, with the same links. I tried it via a remote system (using IE) and when I look at a network trace, I can see that IE is NOT sending the correct URL. The URL that IE "sends" to the SA system is just http://cp.mcafee.com/d/avndygAd3gQrhopsp76zBNNUTsSehKCed7b29IsztcsqenAPoV6WoUQsI9CNOdQNNEVu76RLDYuCT67N1jJoP9SVsSXmcOtKndEEWUwqenT-LOdTD3hOeuWZOWqtPhPOqqr8WZ-mKDp55mXzDaxVZicHs3jq9JwTvAm4TDNOb2pEVdTdw0UqHWj3adYFE0zq4EBgkoHl2AWM_EdCT4m4Pob6Azh0qmNwgbDOFcQKCy0o405Ywq827AZcOH4SCYrQwxbYKfI without any parameter. So it's "normal" that SA isn't doing anything else then showing saWeb when receiving that URL. It's seems to be some type of issue in IE. (I tried it with both the "default" IE that is installed on Win2008R2 and on Win7). What I can reproduce is that I connect to saWeb and change the status twice (from active to maintenance and from maintenance to active), and then it will always just call "saweb" without any parameters. If I go into the Internet Options and clear the "Temporary Internet file and website files", and then try again (even without restarting IE) it works again for 2 calls. So somehow IE is something weird in the caching. Even when adding headers to say that the webbrowser should NOT cache the content, IE is doing it somehow.
