Ignore host case when adding and matching routes

[shantanugadgil]

I am using Fabio version 1.5.9 with my proxy configured in tcp+sni mode.

When I define a backend with a urlprefix:-ExampleDomain.com/, it shows up in the routes table as exampledomain.com/ (small case)

This makes the SSL connects fail as the "servername" parameter doesn't match the "CamelCase" of the backend.

Could Fabio not automatically convert the expected SNI field to small case?
OR
Could Fabio provide a way to compare with "ignore case"?

Thanks and Regards,
Shantanu

@magiconair any thoughts?

Sorry to leave you hanging. Having a look now.

Maybe a larger question ... but why would host comparisons ever be case sensitive?

Thanks for looking into this.

I understand that the servername field need/should not be case sensitive, but my use case is that of an existing application which already has a sizable install base.

The case sensitive servername field is hard coded in the client software and we cannot do anything about it immediately, and so this workaround fix.
