it appears the problem with the port and not the timeout.

Dear All,
I have a script that uses curl to execute an http request now I use
the same code for two different servers. And it works on the first
server but not the second. I have stored the URL that it generates on
the server that doesnt work and if I paste it into the address bar of
the browser it works but somehow the script doesnt execute it.
$ch = curl_init(); // initialize curl handle
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$url); // set url to post to
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FAILONERROR, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);// allow redirects
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1); // return into a
variable
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 8); // times out after 4s
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_GET, 1); // set POST method
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $dat); // add POST
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PORT, $port); // set POST method
$result = curl_exec($ch); // run the whole process
now is there anything that can be causing this not to execute? I have
increasd the timeout to 8 seconds (is this enough). COuld there be a
problem with the server not being able to execute a URL in that way?
Is there anything else I can do to trouble shoot this? IF the URL is
as follows: http://www.sdfsfjs.com?username=hello&password=goodbye do
I need to set the GET variable string seperately in the
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS or can I just send it as one string?
Thanks in advance.
regards
