    <p>I want to be able to do a http.get request through node within my own vpn, but it seems likes the function is passing the website to a dns instead of look in my vpn. This following code works with google as the host.</p> <pre><code>http = require('http'); var host = "www.google.com"; var options = {host:host, port:80, path:'/'} http.get( options, function( res ){ res.setEncoding('utf8'); res.on( 'data', function( chunk ){ console.log( chunk ); }); }); </code></pre> <p>but when I change host to a_site_on_my_vpn.com it throws a Domain name not found error, but when i type a_site_on_my_vpn.com on firefox I am able to load the page. I guess one way I can fix this is to find out the host name's ip but is there an easier way? :D</p> <p>I resolve my own answer, but to answer the question in the follow up, the answer is yes here is a snippet that shows that, by doing an DNS ip lookup then going to google by IP.</p> <pre><code>var dns = require('dns'); var http = require('http'); dns.resolve4('www.google.com', function (err, addresses) { if (err) throw err; console.log('addresses: ' + JSON.stringify(addresses)); var options = { host: addresses[0] } http.get(options, function(res){ console.log("Sending http request to google with options", options); var htmlsize = 0; res.on('data', function( chunk ){ htmlsize+=chunk.length; }); res.on('end', function(){ console.log( "got html of lenght", htmlsize ); }); }); }); </code></pre> <p>And this is the output </p> <pre><code>addresses: ["74.125.224.82","74.125.224.81","74.125.224.84","74.125.224.80","74.125.224.83"] Sending http request to google with options { host: '74.125.224.82' } got html of lenght 33431 </code></pre>

    1. COJust curious, if you do have Node make the request using the IP instead of hostname, does it actually work?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
