Issue specifying the host address

[hydroculator]

Description

I'm having difficulty figuring out exactly how and where to specify the host address.

In these examples, the URL has been replaced with

to protect the innocent. "http://" not included. If I used it, I specify it below.

If I put this in the command line: --host <address name> --target_port 443 Then I get this: "400 Bad Request The plain HTTP request was sent to HTTPS port"

If I do this: --host https://<address name> --target_port 443 I get this: "Unknown error: 'Exception Creating Socket: [Errno -2] Name or service not known'"

If I do neither, and specify those in the settings.json file instead, I get:

    "target_ip": "<address name>",
    "target_port": 443,

"400 Bad Request The plain HTTP request was sent to HTTPS port"

and with this:

    "target_ip": "https://<address name>",
    "target_port": 443,

I get: "Unknown error: 'Exception Creating Socket: [Errno -2] Name or service not known'"

I've swapped out

with the IP address and get the same thing...

Any suggestions how to get this to work? Thanks

I was using the no_ssl option to prevent a different error. If I removed that and went with disable_cert_validation instead, the connection is made.

I am facing the same problem, how did you solve the problem ? Did you use https in the host or not ? and I do not see "disable_cert_validation" anywhere in the options. How do I provide that ?
