Hi, are you actually getting a DNS resolution error?  We're running Ruby
Central on a shared IP using the hostname to differentiate between different
Apache instances, so using just the IP won't work.

One thing that just occurred to me is that just using http://rubycentral.org
won't work currently.  I let that one slip.  Will have to fix it after I've
slept. :)

If you want to try the IP, you'll have to modify your hosts file (or
whatever it is on your platform of choice), so you can add this IP and refer
to it by name.  Not much content there yet, so it's probably not worth the
effort.
