检查网站标头最简单的工具是curl。

在下面的示例中，我们将检查google.com的HTTP标头：

$ curl -I google.com
HTTP/1.1 302 Found
Cache-Control: private
Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
Location: http://www.google.com.au/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=9Mb0VKXbHNLu8weZ24Bo
Content-Length: 260
Date: Mon, 02 Mar 2014 20:24:20 GMT
Server: GFE/2.0
Alternate-Protocol: 80:quic,p=0.08

如果我们希望下载网站内容并包含标头，那么使用：

$ curl -i google.com

检查网站标头的另一个选项是使用'lynx'命令：

$ lynx -head -dump http://google.com
HTTP/1.0 302 Found
Cache-Control: private
Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
Location: http://www.google.com.au/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=rcj0VMLXJcXu8wfvoIGwBw
Content-Length: 262
Date: Mon, 02 Mar 2014 20:31:41 GMT
Server: GFE/2.0
Alternate-Protocol: 80:quic,p=0.08

当然，“wget”还可以使用“--server response”选项提取网站的HTTP标头。例如：

$ wget -q --server-response http://google.com
  HTTP/1.1 302 Found
  Cache-Control: private
  Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
  Location: http://www.google.com.au/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=Isr0VJCHNsvu8weFwoG4Bw
  Content-Length: 262
  Date: Mon, 02 Mar 2014 20:37:54 GMT
  Server: GFE/2.0
  Alternate-Protocol: 80:quic,p=0.08
  HTTP/1.1 200 OK
