The solution has been found.
I finally found out that they were stopping and starting the (Apache) server
every hour or 2 due to some problems that aren't worth going into here.
One interesting question is, why, after the server was restarted, htdig
didn't start connecting again? It seemed that once it could not connect,
there was no going back.
Anyway, the servers have stabilized and now htdig is running fine again.
Thanks,
Roger

I guess the next question, if you're sure the server is running, is can
you access it from a client? More specifically, can you access it using a
different web client on the same system as the one on which you're running
htdig (e.g. from lynx, Netscape, kfm, or some other Linux/Unix-based web
browser)? If you can, then the problem will be to figure out why htdig
can't build the connection while other programs on the same system can.
If you can't access the server from any client program on the same
system, then the problem isn't with htdig, but with your network setup
(e.g. firewall, packet filtering, or a bad connection from that system).
