Need a script - will pay

[Anon]

I will pay $100 for a small script (php or cgi). The script when called will redirect to another specified page but will show a custom referer to the target page.

So if I visit http://www.yahoo.com/script.php , it would redirect to http://www.altavista.com, but show the referer as http://www.google.com instead of yahoo.com .

If anyone can do this please contact me at [e-mail]

don't have a script that does this exactly but i've coded a redirection system if you need redirection for several banner and text links...

its at http://sourceforge.net/projects/powlowdirect

i'll have a look at faking referers...

Thanks, but I dont need anything that complicated. Just a simple redirect to one page, with the header showing the custom referer.

<?php
header("Location: http://www.yoursite.com");
?>
Your Referer Code is:
<?php
echo $HTTP_REFERER
?>

Sorry, I dont understand what this does.. how will this pass the referer info to the redirected site? I dont want it to print the referer info to screen, but to pass it on as header information so the server logs show the custom site as referer.

..and posting your question once is not enough eh?

header("Location: http://server.com/");
header("Extra-info: Don't know how to fake referal and I want to hack your system");
header("Why: Because I'm a bad ass hacker");
header("What-can-we-do-for-you: Please consider using '$custom_referer' as a referal page");

Some servers might not be completely compatibile with this kind of headers, but you can first test it with http://www.cia.gov/

Oh, and you don't need to send me money for this. I don't want it to be fake as your referals...

Would that work? All you've done is pass some headers to the client's browser, I wouldn't have thought you could manipulate the referrer header in this way as it is sent to the server from the browser.

Why don't you try it?

[dannys]

Because it would likely be a waste of time?

Any progress yet?
