I am trying to do what oauth does in an attempt to understand how to use the Authorization headers. I am also getting the following error. I am trying to connect to the linkedin API.
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/http.rb:560:in 'initialize': getaddrinfo: Name or service not known (SocketError)
I would really appreciate it if someone could nudge me in the right direction.
