now I have a (possibly) strange question - what if eth0 is bound to a dhcp
server and thus has no entry in /etc/hosts?
hrm... although dhcp -does- cause a lot of problems to a lot of linux
apps...

as soon as I get my app working I'm going to have to try it accross
multiple network devices... (I've got eth0 (static IP) and eth1 (dynamic
IP)..)  and eth0 does -not- have a domain name due to it being on the
"private non-internet" IP group (192.168.0.x).

I don't know if this comment makes any sense - feel free to berate me if
it doesn't :)

G'day, eh? :)
