 * I’ve got an intermittent problem with the RSS sidebar widget. The following is
   an RSS feed from a WordPress 2.8.4 blog…
    [http://goodnewsontap.com/?feed=rss2](http://goodnewsontap.com/?feed=rss2)
 * It works fine in my Google homepage. It also works fine in the RSS sidebar widget
   of a WordPress MU 2.8.4a blog at…
    [http://www.stgabrielindy.org/](http://www.stgabrielindy.org/)
 * however another blog in the same WordPress MU installation it does not work as
   can be seen here…
    [http://www.stgabrielindy.org/grade1/](http://www.stgabrielindy.org/grade1/)
 * it gives me an error message which says “RSS Error: WP HTTP Error: Couldn’t resolve
   host ‘goodnewsontap.com'”
 * The problem is not just WordPress MU. I get the exact same problem on the following
   single user WordPress 2.8.4 blog at…
    [http://www.stgabrielindy.org/school/](http://www.stgabrielindy.org/school/)
 * All of them have the exact same feed address plugged into the setup box on the
   RSS widget. Any suggestions?
