Aha I see what the problem was!
As it happened I had the port in the command but just neglected it in the message, my bad.
The fail was caused by putting the / on the end of the url being passed to ncat. With the / on the end of that the lookup fails it appears. Seeing your working command made it obvious.
Thanks.

Hi there,
I am trying to make gemini requests with ncat and have hit a bit of a
stumbling block that I am not sure how to solve so was wondering if
anyone here knew what was going on.
If i make a request as such:
echo -e “gemini://gemini.conman.org\r\n” | ncat —ssl “gemini.conman.org”
page.out
I get the expected index page from gemini.conman.org printed into a file.
However if i try the same with
echo -e “gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space\r\n” | ncat —ssl
“gemini.circumlunar.space”
page.out
I get a 31 redirect. If i try that redirect address which is the same
but with a / on the end of the url then the requests fails Where in
would expect the gemini.circumlunar.space home page to be output to a file.
I feel like there is something obvious I am missing.
Anyone done this and know whats wrong?
echo -e "gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space/\r\n" | ncat --ssl
"gemini.circumlunar.space" 1965
page.out
works here, just added the slash and the port.-------------- next part --------------An HTML attachment was scrubbed...URL: <https://lists.orbitalfox.eu/archives/gemini/attachments/20200922/c4d07bc6/attachment.htm>
