Hi,
I had recent problems like this, and I traced it to firewall issues; however
i just checked the destination, and found it is possible to telnet to that
port, so it's not a firewall issue on their side.
Try using the following code -- and let it run, see what response you get.
<?php
$host = "pericles.ipaustralia.gov.au";
$fp = fsockopen($host, 23, &$errno, &$errstr, 5);
if (!($fp)) {
echo "SOCKET ERROR: $errno - $errstr<br>\n";
}
?>
Hope that helps,
James Cox
