Networking in Cygwin.

Networking in Cygwin.

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 196 bytes --]

Hi,
    I installed net utilities with Cygwin, however, wget, ncftp etc do not seem to work.
In both, I get an unknown host error. 
Any help/pointers appreciated.
thanks and regards,
Raghu.

Normally it works fine. What's your "ipconfig /all" saying?
Also, are you sure that nslookup (native Windoz command-line utility)
resolves those names?

Well, this is really not a Cygwin issue, and so OT.  You should
ask your SysAdmin.  Several network tools (ftp, telnet, wget)
can be used with proxies - see the man pages.

Is it possible you are behind a firewall and your
browser is set up to use a proxy?

Can you access this site ok outside of Cygwin - eg
using the MS telnet command in a DOS shell?

If you try the command:

   telnet  images.ucomics.com  80

you should get a connection.  It won't output anything until you
type something - then (unless you manage to type a valid HTTP
request) it should respond with an HTML error message and close the
connection.

Try the same thing with the IP address (63.161.87.120).  This
should establish whether it's a DNS issue, a firewall issue
or a Cygwin issue.  (If it works in the DOS shell try the same
under bash).

But you gave nslookup output for some other host...

Hi, 
	heres the wget output when I try something outside the LAN.

[~]>wget -d images.ucomics.com/comics/ch/1991/ch910425.gif
DEBUG output created by Wget 1.7 on cygwin.

parseurl ("images.ucomics.com/comics/ch/1991/ch910425.gif") -> host images.ucomi
cs.com -> opath comics/ch/1991/ch910425.gif -> dir comics/ch/1991 -> file ch9104

Address:  204.4.54.4

Is there any configuration file that I need to set up?

Raghu
