Port 8500 on my home development machine or on the server?

First guess is that port 8500 is not open.

That's right, I used the word "befuddled"... it's that kind of day.

Recently the server I host my sites on was rebuilt, and extra security measures added. Most everything is working fine, but one thing has left me confused beyond believe, despite hours of googling.

I have a CFHTTP call to an RSS file in order to display latest news in the BlogFusion admin. This file sits on the BlogFusion site. The file is fine and valid (xxxx).

When I look at a BlogFusion site on my local development machine (using http://localhost:8500/blah/blah), the CFHTTP works fine, pulls the content in fine.

But when I look at the same page on a live server (I've tested on several), I'm getting the following error:

Connection Failure: Status code unavailable

Now, I am guessing that it's an issue of some server security settings not being tweaked right (although I'm guessing there), but what really confuses me is that it doesn't seem to be either a code error (the code is grabbing the content fine - as long as it can connect), or a server error (if it was on the server, why would my development machine be able to use the CFHTTP just fine?).

Because this is so odd, I'm not even sure where to start looking! Help!
