Plain regex.... The key are the parenthesis () ...
basically it will omit ANYTHING + two slashes at the beginning
of a string. Then it will match everything BUT a slash, and as
much of that as possible since regex are greedy by default
(hence the host name he was looking for) ... and everything
AFTER a slash will be omitted.
