to retrieve information from a homepage that only responds to

error.
The request is sent to the server of concern with my http header
field pretending for the client to be Safari. The first request
still has the entire header populated with the information I
provide, then a response with the forwarding address from the
server causes another GET to be triggered and a couple more then,
but that second and all subsequent GETs contain as a user agent
CFNetwork, not the Safari string I initially provide to my
NSMutableURLRequest The cache policy is set to
NSURLRequestReloadIgnoringCacheData.
Are you implementing connection:willSendRequest:redirectResponse: (or
download:willSendRequest:redirectResponse:)? Those should allow you
to inspect and alter subsequent requests, if that is really the issue.
