You didn't provide the test.xml, so I guessed:

<!DOCTYPE chapter PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD Docbook XML V4.4//EN"
                  "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.4/docbookx.dtd";>
<chapter><title>Test</title><para>Test</para></chapter>

Loading this on a Debian Etch with DocBook 4.4, installed from
official Debian Package, it looks the same:

$ xmllint --noout --valid --nonet --load-trace test.xml
Loaded URL="test.xml" ID="(null)"
Loaded URL="http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.4/docbookx.dtd"; ID="-//OASIS//DTD Docbook XML V4.4//EN"
Loaded URL="file:///usr/share/xml/docbook/schema/dtd/4.4/dbnotnx.mod" ID="-//OASIS//ENTITIES DocBook 
Notations V4.4//EN"

The DTD isn't loaded from Server*, it's simply the URL provided in
test.xml that is mapped to a local file but not printed here.
(the URL must exactly match the one from catalog).

* I'm sure as I checked with strace that no connection is made
