Re: got cl-http working-sees nothing! ??

I'm having the same problem. Apparently CL-HTTP/ACL/Linux can't correctly
perform DNS lookups. I'm working on a solution, but it's slow since I'm
having to familiarize myself with the code. Perhaps the problem is
corrected in the current development code; but I'm unable to test it until
the compression problem is corrected. I'm looking forward to running
CL-HTTP on my Linux box and developing some really cool applications!
