google calendar's online generated ics (adress example given below)

an evolution problem if google calendar is offline, what do you mean
exactly by it? "cannot resolve hostname" might a problem on your network

nah, actuallly i can access the network and all, everything is fine to
that respect except for evolution unable to access the web stored
calendar. (firefox fine and all ports open in adsl router) moreover, i
had the issue on 3 different networks (my own, girlfriend's, and
school network)

> - do you have an example of such calendar we would try?

apparently any google calendar gives this problem but not the first
time... try this one.

I'll be glad to help go further by giving more precise info. actually
the whole set of google calendars I use suffer from this problem.

I suppose this has to do with the protocol (webcal://) automatically
set by evolution. hope I may be of help.
