Description:
------------
Doing an include('http://www.example.com/'); for names local 
to the server hang and eventually time out a minute later.  
Using include for external names as well as to localhost and 
127.0.0.1 all work as expected.  External servers can use 
include() to load pages on this server.

php.ini Fopen wrappers:
allow_url_fopen = On
default_socket_timeout = 60

Compile time options:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/oraclesw/instantclient_10_2
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
./configure \
        --prefix=/usr/local/$1 \
        --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs \
        --with-ldap=/usr/local \
        --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \
        --with-oci8-instant-client=/oraclesw/
instantclient_10_2 \
        --with-ftp \
        --with-gd \
        --with-gettext \
        --with-iconv \
        --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/sfw \
        --with-openssl=/usr/sfw \
        --with-png-dir=/usr/sfw \
        --with-zlib \
        --with-zlib-dir \
        --with-dom=/usr/local \
        --with-dom-xslt=/usr/local \
        --with-dom-exslt=/usr/local \
        --enable-sockets \
        --enable-track-vars \
        --enable-xml \
        --with-expat-dir=/usr/local \
        --enable-mbstring=all \
        --with-pspell=/usr 

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

include('http://www.example.com/');

?>

Expected result:
----------------
For the page to be included successfully.

Actual result:
--------------
Warning: main(http://www.example.com/): failed to open stream: 
HTTP request failed! in /path/to/script/testit.php on line 3

Warning: main(): Failed opening 'http://www.wm.edu/it/' for 
inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/local/php/lib/php') in /path/
to/script/testit.php on line 3

Recompiled with the same options with the same result though 
the error messages seemed to be formatted slightly 
different:

Warning: main(http://www.example.com/) [function.main]: 
failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! in /path/to/
script/testit.php on line 3

Warning: main() [function.include]: Failed opening 'http://

What is the web-server used on this host (aka "example.com") and are you able to connect to it using telnet or something else?
 [2006-06-23 14:44 UTC] roclar at gmail dot com 
The web server is Apache/1.3.36 (Unix)

I have command line access to the host and can compile, start/
stop, etc.
 [2006-06-23 14:52 UTC] tony2001@php.net 
But are you able to connect to this server from the same host where your PHP script is located?
 [2006-06-23 15:00 UTC] roclar at gmail dot com 
I could use wget on the server and get the same result.
 [2006-06-23 15:14 UTC] tony2001@php.net 
The "same result"? I.e. "unable to connect"?

Again. Please try to connect to this web-server (aka example.com) using a telnet or wget or something else from the server where the script is located. I want you to do this because I suspect there is a firewall or a proxy or some other reason which prevents you from connecting from one server to another.
What you need to do: login to the server, run `telnet <example.com> 80` (or wget example.com/some_page.html), make sure you're able to get the data.
 [2006-06-23 16:12 UTC] roclar at gmail dot com 
That last comment was retreived using wget from the command 
line on the server that hosts both the php script.  It is 
also the server where I am trying to pull the data from.  If 
I wget http://www.example.com directly, I get the data:

--12:10:28--  http://www.example.com/
           => `index.html'
Resolving www.example.com... 127.0.0.1
Connecting to www.example.com[127.0.0.1]:80... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 200 OK
