Hi,
Thanks for ur reply.

require 'net/https'
require 'uri'

uri = "https://www.cia.gov"
url = URI.parse(uri)
req = Net::HTTP::Get.new('/', "User-Agent"=>"Mozilla/4.0 (compatible 
MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0)")
https = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port)
https.use_ssl = true
res = https.start {|http|
      http.request(req)
      }
puts res.body

This is my entire code of example.rb. Now i used https. I'm now getting 
a warning like this when i try to access https sites :

warning: peer certificate won't be verified in this SSL session

and i'm not able to access sites where the url is redirecting.

Please help me

Regards
Arun Kumar
