It’s a server issue. You need to ask your hosts about it.

I forgot to mention that I host it on my own server. Do you know what specifically I’d need to check?
Sorry – no. Try checking the documentation for your server.
Make sure php has fopen enabled (Something like allow_url_fopen = on). I think WordPress uses fopen and cURL interchangeably for several things, so you could also check if you compiled php with the cURL extension.
I am seeing the same problem and running WP 3.2.1
I checked with my server and their end appears fine. I had the server perform tests and I performed ping and a telnet trace.
The other problem is timeout or cannot find server.
This problem RSS Error: WP HTTP Error: Could not open handle for fopen() to http://ww.wp.xz.cn/news/feed/ might contribute to the dns server problem. Have installed other suggestion but after the install, the problem; “RSS Error…” is still present. Thus, looking for specific solutions. Thanks
Forgot to mention earlier, also seeing connection timed out or dns errors. Thus, difficulty in working with WP when something is not working. Checked with the server and claims no problems on the server end. Suggestions are great!
