I suppose that’s only for the Server Variables collection, though.

I believe IIS turns all hyphens into underscores for header names, like HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR instead of X-Forwarded-For. I’m not sure if that has anything to do with it, but figured it was worth mentioning.

Are there any limitations on names of headers (mapped from attributes) that can be passed from IIS to Tomcat via the AJP connector?

Asking as I have an attribute that's not coming through and the only obvious thing that's “special” is that the name includes a hyphen character (‘-’).
