Public bug reported:
>From some particular web servers, a machine running feisty cannot get an
HTTP response. However, machines running most other OSs can get an HTTP
response. (However, the problem appears to affect Debian etch also.)
How to reproduce the problem:
Use wget or any web browser to try to retrieve the file from this URL:
http://www.ureg.ohio-state.edu/ourweb/online.html
The client resolves the host, establishes a connection, and sends an
HTTP request. However, it receives no response. However, a client on
other OSs besides feisty will receive a response. In fact, a machine
running dapper can get an HTTP response just fine.
Here is the output from wget:

From some particular web servers, a machine running feisty cannot get an

response. (However, the problem appears to affect Debian etch also.)
