Apologies

curl info: curl 7.12.0 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.12.0 OpenSSL/0.9.7a
zlib/1.1.4
Protocols: ftp gopher telnet dict ldap http file https ftps
Features: Largefile NTLM SSL libz
Apache/phpinfo: Apache/1.3.33 (Unix) PHP/5.0.4 mod_auth_passthrough/1.8
mod_log_bytes/1.2 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 mod_ssl/2.8.22
OpenSSL/0.9.7a . php --with-curl

The fsockopen example is similar/identical to one used by most people
querying the domain server. The connection opens then waits for the CR/LF
domain name before giving a response.

I've tried it with the port on the url and it seems to connect, but gives
the following error:
Array ( [url] => http://dac.nic.uk:2043 [http_code] => 0 [header_size] => 0
[request_size] => 72 [filetime] => -1 [ssl_verify_result] => 0
[redirect_count] => 0 [total_time] => 5.264429 [namelookup_time] => 0.000121
[connect_time] => 0.074026 [pretransfer_time] => 0.074133 [size_upload] => 0
[size_download] => 82 [speed_download] => 15 [speed_upload] => 0
[download_content_length] => 0 [upload_content_length] => 0
[starttransfer_time] => 3.191224 [redirect_time] => 0 ) cURL error number:28
cURL error:Operation timed out with 82 out of -1 bytes received

When I turned off the error logging and return transfer it gives:
PUT / HTTP/1.1,I Host: dac.nic.uk:2043,I Pragma: no-cache,I Accept: */*,I ,I

which is the same error when using curl from command line. The connection
appears to be taking the headers as requests, which gives the ,I return
errors.

I've mailed the technical people for the system to see if they have any
recommendations. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

Stephen
