Hi folks,

for some mysterious reasons, socket is not working anymore
for me. I can access files in my own internet domain (i.e.
harvard.edu)
but I cannot access files [i.e. readf on the unit given by socket
hangs]
outside that domain (using HTTP GET commands).
I tried spawn, 'wget ...' from the same command line and this can get
files from everywhere.
Notice that "socket" itself and printf,unit both work (or at least
do not give troubles), is only readf,unit that hangs.

So the question is: how is socket different than wget?
If this is a firewall issue, what settings are causing this?

I know this is not much information to go on, but this issue
seems pretty hard to track down, so I just though I could ask
here before trying more desperate measures...

Ciao,
Paolo
