Hi, Even with this code, i am getting the result as, HTTP/0.9 200 (OK) EOF Client-Date: Wed, 08 Feb 2012 05:13:58 GMT Client-Peer: 66.39.54.27:80 Client-Response-Num: 1 There is not content. Should i check for any firewall issues or any proxy setting.. i am running from my unix sevrer.. should any permissions be granted.. Because I am able to get the contents of only our application url.. other than that I am not able to hit any external url.. Can you please suggest
