Subject: Weird Net:HTTP connection issues

I'm having some new issues connecting to our credit card processors
servers. I'm working under Linux (dev and production), and have tried
Ruby 1.8.7, 1.9.2 and 1.9.3 under Linux.  This was working for the past
year, and just recently became a problem.

The weird thing... on Mac OS X, with Ruby 1.8.7 it connects just fine!
:(

On Linux, when I try to connect to esqa.moneris.com it will just timeout
(or hang forever with Ruby's default Net::HTTP timeout).  Even something
simple like this hangs on my Linux box:

RestClient.get('https://esqa.moneris.com')

I can connect to my remote production server without any problem, so
it's not like Ruby Net::HTTP doesn't work.

Moneris says there's no problem on their end. They had me telnet to
esqa.moneris.com, and that did work.  Not to mention it works under Mac
OS X.

Does anyone have any suggestions for debugging this further.  I'm sorta
at a road block.  Maybe I just need to sleep on it.
