Adapting virtualhostfilter for a subdirectory structure.

[leo]

Hi, I'd like some information on adapting virtualhostfilter for a user
setup.

What I'd like is when a request comes in for
http://example.com/~leo/chpy/guestbook
cherrypy should ignore the ['~leo', 'chpy'] and only act on
'guestbook'?

I added the following to my config:
virtualHostFilter.on = True
virtualHostFilter.prefix = "/~leo/chpy"

However, every request goes to my default callable in controller. I'm
using the extended call syntax in default(), and I'm not seeing any
*args passed through either.

Is there something I'm missing? I took a look at the "virtualhostfilter
examples" from Tim Williams (
http://groups.google.com/group/cherrypy-users/browse_thread/thread/f393540fe278e54d
) and tried to adapt from that as much as possible.

Thanks in advance,
leo

You may need the VirtualPathFilter found here:
