ok, i'll take a look at http-access2. try my script bellow - it fails 
with message:
getaddrinfo: No address associated with hostname

fetch.rb:
#!/usr/local/bin/ruby -w

require 'net/http'
require 'uri'

uri = 'http://www.sms.de/'
response = Net::HTTP.get_response( URI.parse( uri ) )
while Net::HTTPRedirection === response
     puts response['Location']
     response = Net::HTTP.get_response( URI.parse( response['Location'] ) )
end
p response
