Hi,
I have installed drupal and it works almost fine. However, when I run cron manually it gives me this

HTTP request status Fails
Your system or network configuration does not allow Drupal to access web pages, resulting in reduced functionality. This could be due to your webserver configuration or PHP settings, and should be resolved in order to download information about available updates, fetch aggregator feeds, sign in via OpenID, or use other network-dependent services.

Any ideas how to fix this?
Thanx!

Afraid this can't be fixed, we do not allow outgoing connections at the moment.

is it temporary? Could you please give me an idea when it will be possible? (unless its permanent)

Zymic is a great hosing service and I also use Drupal and this is a very good feature for site admins.

Can http requests be a paid service here at Zymic? Just like your phpmail and mx services.

Thanks.

for mail go to livechat.zymic.com/hosting and type in this ?purchasemail and you will get the info about it and its permanent that out-going connection will be disable
