Thanks All.


In response to Alexm.

For a switched off device:

Error Code:Error GETing HTTPS://10.241.65.134: Can't connect to 10.241.65.134:443 (connect: Connection timed out) at test5.pl line 24

For a machine that doesn't have a web server:

Error Code:Error GETing HTTPS://10.241.3.11: Can't connect to 10.241.3.11:443 (connect: Connection refused) at test5.pl line 24

However....

I've just noticed that the timeout works when using port 80 instead of port 443. This might be enough for me to get around my problem (if I can get a response from port 80 then I can go for port 443).

Thanks again

Rich
