I'm using the PEAR Soap package and having problem accessing another sites's webservices. When i
do something like this:

<?PHP

$wsdl_url = 'some_wsdl.xml';
$WSDL = new SOAP_WSDL($wsdl_url);
$client = $WSDL->getProxy();

$web_service_result = $client -> some_web_service($param1,$param2,$param3,$param4);

?>

$web_service_result returns the soap_fault Object. The message portion contains the line
"curl_exec error 6 Couldn't resolve host 'secure.example.com' " Also if i try to grab the WSDL
file from the remote server the script doesn't seem to grab the WSDL ( i get a bunch of "Passed
variable is not an array or object" errors ). I think the problem is curl can't resolve the
hostname.

Also if i run
<?PHP
echo gethostbyname('http://bugs.php.net');
?>

It echos "http://bugs.php.net", no good.

When i try something like
<?PHP
$url = 'https://secure.example.com/index.html';
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,TRUE);
$result = curl_exec($ch);

$cur_error = curl_error($ch);
curl_close($ch);

echo $result;
echo "<BR> Error: ".$cur_error;
?>

It doesn't echo out anything, however if run "curl https://secure.example.com/index.html" from the
command line i get back the page found at that address.

I'm running PHP Version 4.3.4 with CURL support enabled (CURL Information: libcurl 7.9.8 (OpenSSL
0.9.7c) (ipv6 enabled) ) on Red Had.

If i ping 'secure.example.com' the address resolves properly.

Any tips on things to try? Should i reinstall curl? SSL? Anything else i should investigate?
