I just use absolute paths, without the server name:
        <form action="/pks/lookup" method="get"> 

That way the browser can figure it out... i'm still running apache 1,
with this in my httpd.conf:

<VirtualHost 129.128.11.77>
    Options Indexes
    ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:11371/
    ServerName pgp.cns.ualberta.ca
</VirtualHost>

then i can run my other vhosts on this box, proxy my keyserver through and
still leave SKS open.

     GDB has a 'break' feature; why doesn't it have 'fix' too?
