Description

I've been tracking dat for a while and decided to try the tutorial today. I got stuck on the following step:

> dat clone http://eukaryota.dathub.org eukaryota
Cloning http://eukaryota.dathub.org into eukaryota...
Progress:  [+0, -0].
socket hang up

I'm guessing it has something to do with our corporate firewall because the same command worked fine from http://try-dat.com/
How to help debug?

PS. I'm on OS X Yosemite

Research direction

Start by reproducing dat clone http://eukaryota.dathub.org eukaryota on OS X Yosemite and compare it with the successful run from try-dat.com. Trace the dat clone network path around the socket hang up error, then determine whether the failure is environmental or requires a change; done means the cause and a reproducible resolution are documented.
