Hey. We ran into this as well... At least I think I know what you're seeing... Make sure your server has FQDN (and it's reversable) and in your hosts file put it's address with the FQDN and any aliases... I think I said that right... Also, make sure it's address is above (before) the 127.0.0.1 line. Like this: the-server-IP-here the-FQDN-here servername-here 127.0.0.1 servername-here localhost.localdomain localhost HTH.
