I am using LWP behind firewall to test some web links working or not. Some of the links return to be OK but some of them which are acctually exists give me the "404 Not Found" errors. Does anyone know what's the problem? Following is the code.

use strict; use LWP::UserAgent; use HTTP::Request; use HTTP::Response; #use LWP::Debug qw(level); level('+'); my ($request, $response, $ua, $status_line, $url); print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"; $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new; $ua = new LWP::UserAgent; $ua->agent("Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; Q312461 +; YComp 5.0.0.0)"); $ua->env_proxy; $ua->proxy('http', 'http://proxy.com/'); $ua->timeout(10); $url ='http://www.netscape.com'; # return "200 OK" #$url ='http://wp.netscape.com/fun/index.html'; # return "404 Not Foun +d" $request = new HTTP::Request('GET', $url); $request->header('Accept' => 'text/html'); $response = $ua->request($request); $status_line = $response->status_line; print "$status_line\n";

Thanks,
