OK, I think I have this solved but I''m hamstrung by a
''?'' in the URL...
in console...
>> url.path
"/horde/kronolith/ics.php?c=5be410ec5238fc93c1f66b1a935365c9"
URI::InvalidComponentError: bad component(expected absolute path
component): /horde/kronolith/ics.php?c=5be410ec5238fc93c1f66b1a935365c9
from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/uri/generic.rb:475:in `check_path''
from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/uri/generic.rb:495:in `path=''
from (irb):354
from :0
and if I substitute %3F for the ? it will accept the
''path''...>> url.path = "/horde/kronolith/ics.php%
3Fc=5be410ec5238fc93c1f66b1a935365c9"
=> "/horde/kronolith/ics.php%3Fc=5be410ec5238fc93c1f66b1a935365c9"
but it doesn''t work>> res = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, 443)
=> #<Net::HTTP my_server:443 open=false>>> res.use_ssl=true
=> true>> res.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE
=> 0>> ret=res.start {|http| http.request(req)}
=> #<Net::HTTPBadRequest 400 Bad Request readbody=true>
nor does this URL work with wget...
wget --no-check-certificate
https://craig:*****@my_server//horde/kronolith/ics.php%
3Fc=5be410ec5238fc93c1f66b1a935365c9
--13:06:07--
https://craig:*password*@my_server//horde/kronolith/ics.php%

=> `ics.php?c=5be410ec5238fc93c1f66b1a935365c9.1''
Resolving my_server... 192.168.3.5

of course with a ? instead of %3F, it works
How does one use net/http (net/https) with URL''s that have a ?
?
