Hi, I have experienced this problem a few days ago. At first the rss-portlets worked fine but after a while I got the same message. I was found out that it had something to do with tomcat behind a firewall. Try to open a rss file on your local machine-that works! I've searched in the mailing list and found some messages saying that tomcat 3x handles firewalls another way than tomcat4x. Nobody could provide a solution for this problem yet.
