Hi,

We encounter a problem similar to this one
http://rtomaszewski.blogspot.com/2013/01/how-to-modify-http-host-header-in-chrome.html

We get 404 Error without adding Host Header when performing a CURL.

We just wonder whether it is possible to add the Host Header (Similar to that blog) when we attempt to access a URL via Browser ?

Thanks

    The blog is a demo of chrome extension for making http requests. The best of these is postman. Recently postman converted to a desktop app.

    https://www.postman.com/

    If you meant just using the url bar in the browser, the browser sets the host header to the dns name in the url.
