Too dificult to guess! It does not work on windows either! I don't think 
is a problem of your client!
The stream seem to be an "asf" file.
More probably the server reached the maximum number of user and you 
simply were lucky at the single occasion you were connecting with linux,
and/or the server is misconfigured.

PS.
if you use the option -v you get:
