Yes, I can ping the host and also nslookup resolves the host address...

but wget can't do it... you have to look at this more closely.

maybe the settinds in ".wgetrc" are faulty...

Another clue is:

Code:
-------------
$ nslookup repo2.maven.org
Server:		192.168.2.1
Address:	192.168.2.1#53

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:	repo2.maven.org
Address: 207.223.240.88
-----------
$ wget http://207.223.240.88/maven2/org/apa...-2.0.0-rc2.jar
--2011-04-03 12:06:51--  http://207.223.240.88/maven2/org/apa...-2.0.0-rc2.jar

2011-04-03 12:06:52 ERROR 403: Forbidden.
------------

I think there's a problem with my wget's host resolution... But also there's another problem as seen above: When I try downloading with the resolved ip, it gives forbidden error

Hi,

I know this answer is similar to my last one, but here I paste the commands in my system. It works in the last example so I can't figure your problem.
Code:
$ wget http://207.223.240.88/maven2/org/apa...-2.0.0-rc2.jar

Yes, with the --user-agent="" and host name to ip conversion, it works for me too.
But it still fails with the host name...

Somehow your wget is using different DNS settings than the rest of your system. Have you checked your wgetrc files as requested?
