socket connection not returning/reading response

Env: Indesign CS 5.5 and Indesign CS 6; Mac OS 10.8.4

 

I have a strange issue with reading the response from the server that just started after a client upgraded from a previous OS to Mac OS 10.8.4. However, this particular script has worked on other 10.8.4 machines so I believe it is another issue.

 

Here is the code in question:

var rtnData = "";
conn = new Socket; if (File.fs == "Windows") var isMac=0;          else var isMac=1; 
var myRequest = "GET "+vSubDir+"/get_Pathnames.asp?ismac="+isMac+" HTTP/1.0\n\n"if (debug) $.writeln(myRequest);    if (conn.open (vHost)) {                        conn.write (myRequest);       // send a HTTP request        rtnData = conn.read(999999);  // and read the server’s reply                conn.close();}

vHost=I.P address of server

vSubDir=subdirectory to the file

 

 

So some of the tests I ran already:

conn.open(vHost) returns true.

When I go to vHost+vSubDir+"/get_Pathnames.asp?ismac="+isMac+" directly in the browser I receive the response I expect.

 

 

Essentially Indesign is connecting to the server but not reading the response that I know exists. Has anyone else experienced this issue or something similiar? I can't recreate it anywhere but the client's machine.
