Amazon S3 cURL and open_basedir

Issue Summary

Hello,

I get the following errors/warnings when I try to add a new video. The video works, meaning I can play it, but it gets stored locally rather than getting uploaded to S3. Our account works fine (I've uploaded using the Firefox plugin) and I've double checked the bucket name, and both keys.

I used double asterisks (**) to denote text that I replaced.

I believe the open_basedir directive is set because we have our download method, under File System settings in the Drupal core, set to Private. I don't think changing the method to Public is an option for us. Also, another item that jumped out at me was the "Couldn't resolve host '**my-bucket-name**-..-stored_files-finished_video.s3.amazonaws.com'... My bucket name is followed by -..-, which doesn't look right to me.

Let me know if you need more info and thanks a lot!
