we can also do a curl from the command line no problem so it's something strange with the way ruby is making the connection. we have no proxy server. any ideas?

Hi Aaron,
There's no need to be authenticated to do that type of retrieval.
I just tried retrieving the feed using curl: curl "http://picasaweb.google.com/data/feed/base/user/aaronandbecca?kind=photo &max-results=1"
This worked successfully for me on several different networks without sending any sort of auth info.
Is it possible the network you're on requires a proxy server to be used-- something your browser may be handling automatically fro you, but is not being handled in your ruby script?
Cheers, -Ryan

Greetings Picaca peeps,
I'm trying to request a feed of a user's photos. Here's the url I'm using:
When I try this via my app (a Ruby application) I get a timeout every time. When I tried it in my browser, the first time it timed out. Then I signed in to picasaweb, and now it works every time.
Does the requestor need to be authenticated? Note that all the albums for this user (er, me) are public.
Suggestions?
