Why doesn't the admin think it works? If hello.aspx is no longer served, you'll get a 404 error rather than the 'hi' so that part should work.

 

I'd certainly suggest you make the response something a bit more complex, I can imagine 'hi' might match other things (like t'hi'ngs) unintentionally.

 

Also, you could tidy up and improve the request string, see here: http://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/2000/100/sol2167.html
