[Domain name and IP addresses changed.] So there is a website, example.org, that I am trying to connect to. I can connect to this site (via http) *very* intermittently. If I run "wget example.org", I get the page exactly, once, but if I run the same command immediately after, I get connection reset errors, e.g.: $ wget example.org --09:54:48-- http://example.org/ => `index.html' Resolving example.org... 192.168.1.5 Connecting to example.org|192.168.1.5|:80... connected. HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 200 OK Length: unspecified [text/html] [ <=> ] 19,830 52.46K/s 09:54:48 (52.39 KB/s) - `index.html' saved [19830] $ wget example.org --09:54:49-- http://example.org/ => `index.html.1' Resolving example.org... 192.168.1.5 Connecting to example.org|192.168.1.5|:80... connected. HTTP request sent, awaiting response... Read error (Connection reset by peer) in headers. Retrying. --09:54:53-- http://example.org/ (try: 2) => `index.html.1' Connecting to example.org|192.168.1.5|:80... connected. HTTP request sent, awaiting response... Read error (Connection reset by peer) in headers. Retrying. ^C If I wait couple of minutes and try again, the same thing happens... Normally I would write the whole thing off as a problem on their side, but I have access to other machines on different networks and in different cities and they both seem to have no problems accessing this page. In addition, I had a brief chat with someone on their side and they said they are not aware of any errors like this with anyone else who tries to connect to them. (They apparently block pings at the firewall -- I cannot ping them from any machine.) How can I debug this further? thanks, Thomas -- N.J. Thomas njt@ayvali.org Etiamsi occiderit me, in ipso sperabo
