I tested this with 24inch.org and 123.org with the example from http://php.net/fsockopen. Everything works as expected. Maybe you can be a bit more verbose.

Ok, here's more info:

this script:
http://www.abcda.com/fun/sock.php   tries to open a socket connection to the server.

Here's its source:

<?php
if (isset($go)) {
$fp = fsockopen ($url, 80, $errno, $errstr, 30);
if (!$fp) {
   echo "Error: $errstr ($errno)";
} else {
   echo "Opened";
}
}
?>
<form action=<?php echo $PHP_SELF ?> method=post>
<input type=text name=url>
<input type=hidden name=go value=1>
<input type=submit name=submit value=connect>
</form>

now, if you enter www.9o9o.com in the field which is my hoster, you get a fsockopen timeout, it just doesn't connect.

Sorry, but the bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking
support questions. Your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

up your timeout, it has nothing to do with numbers in the string 9o9o is slow on connect
