Hi All,

Summary:
When I try to access a PHP page the IP address it works fine, but when I 
use the hostname it hangs.

Details:
(Lets asume www.mydomain.com = IP 1.2.3.4)
These URLs work fine:
http://www.mydomain.com/test.html
http://www.mydomain.com/test.gif
http://1.2.3.4/test.html
http://1.2.3.4/test.gif
http://1.2.3.4/test.php

This URL hangs:
http://www.mydomain.com/test.php (The browser says opening page and 
after a couple of minutes I get an error: The page cannot be displayed)

Here are some more observations:
I do not have this problem when I connect to any other server.
This problem exists both when I use IE 6.0 or Firefox 1.0PR
The problem does not exist if I directly telnet to www.mydomain.com and 
do a GET /test.php (though I really should try it with full HTTP 1.1 
headers).
I tried from another computer at home and the problem does not exist.
Several other people have connected to the server from their computers 
and do not have this problem.

It seems to be a combination of that specific server with my specific 
computer.

I googled this issue and could not find anyone with the same problem.

Any suggestions ????
