1. RE: euTCP4u

Hi Kenneth,

Maybe there is a problem with the DNS lookup???

Try changing the remote file in the example to an IP address ... like:

remote_file = "http://209.249.147.13/"

let me know how it goes.

2. RE: euTCP4u

Hi,

... also forgot to mention I have successfully used get_file.exw 
from work which uses a proxy and from home which doesn't use a proxy.

so it works under at least some situations!

Thanks,

I've had problems trying to get redirected urls.

I couldn't get it to download any of the rds site pages, but I can do it 
with webshepard.

I have never done much testing of the http functions in euTCP4u.

As it turns out it looks like base URL's work mostly but actual pages
never!

I'll do some testing, and investigation over the next few days. 
I might have to do some C programming and see if it's the base library
of the wrapper.

Thanks,

5. RE: euTCP4u

Thanks for the suggestion.  That works and I can now get a file using 
the direct IP address.  Is there a way I can find the IP address of a 
site for which I know the name?  IE automatically does a DNS lookup and 
doesn't bother to show me what it found.  If I could even manually look 
up some IP addresses which I want to use to automate lookups then that 
would be nice.  Thanks again.

Look at:
global function tcp4u_get_remote_id(integer socket)

Or in mirc, type:
/dns www.thenameyouwant.com

Or goto your favorite internet name registrar and whois the ip#.
