I checked with the hosting company(hostingcompanyA) who host the website my machine running CF is trying to access and they told, they are not blocking the IP address of the server running CF. > > try displaying it in a browser that shows the same external IP > address as your server > >> How do I do that? > If the server is at a separate location (hosting company), you may have > to ask them for help with this. Yes, that is with hosting company B and they say we are not blocking the website your CF server is trying to read. > Honestly, at this point with what you know this does not sound like a > job for a programming issue and it may not be best for a programmer to > be troubleshooting it.

We went with a hosting company because network engineers in our organization did not have time for such things. Reading the RSS feeds and getting them to display is my task.
