readfile accross domains

I'm trying to access the contents of a simple text file on a different
server

When I try
echo readfile("http://www.otherdomain.com/sometext.txt";);
it fails

if the text file is on my server, like
echo readfile("sometext.txt");
it works

What am I doing wrong? I read on the PHP manual that it should work across
different domains.

Thnaks beforehand
