Currently working on a legacy script (PHP) for one of my customers.
He just called me telling, that I somehow messed up his script.

I narrowed the problems down to a completely different portion of the source.
Seems as if the script is trying to post something on twitter.
The server is hard coded to 

http://128.242.245.20/statuses/update.xml?status=[someDynamicallyAddedString]

The server does not seem to be online, i.e. it does not react to either HTTP or Ping.

Does anyone have any information about this server or whether the way to publish on twitter changed recently?

    According to this source, 128.242.245.20 is a legacy server used by twitter indeed. Seems to me like a regular attempt to call the Twitter API, so to make it work, changing the IP to twitter.com should do it.
