You should take a look at your server's DNS settings.
Open a terminal session and enter `nslookup betastream.twitter.com`. It should return something like this :
tom-mbp:~ tom$ nslookup betastream.twitter.com Server: 10.0.0.138 Address: 10.0.0.138#53 Non-authoritative answer: Name: betastream.twitter.com Address: 128.242.250.199
