Hi Brendan, if you are calling an IP or a DNS name should not be something that concerns curl, the name resolution and routing is handled somewhere on the lower level IP stack of your server or development machine. You can test this assumption by creating a host file entry with your IP address:
10.0.0.1 test and using 'http://test' for the url in your curl call. You can also test if the other end actually listenes on TCP by using telnet 10.0.0.1 80, then enter "GET /" (blindly). You should get the page returned to the console. As Bruce said, what happens?
