Hi,

I'm trying to get my windows computer to recognize a hostname I've
added to the hosts file.

It appears to just ignore whatever is in there (localhost does return
127.0.0.1 however).

This behavior started when I "upgraded" to SP2.  Before that, I used
the hosts file freely.

Does anyone have ideas on this?  multiple reboots don't seem to help.

Regards,
Mark
