Maybe we should ship some testcode to > spot this case and warn people? I was assuming he was still using liblo 0.15 - the 'local case' should work in 0.16. In the scenario that the name resolution setup is *really* screwed (empty hosts file, no/misconfigured dns), liblo's fallback on hostname 'localhost' (which then can also not be found) will only work if liblo clients connect explicitly using the loopback IP address instead of the default 'localhost'. In that case a warning might be appropriate. Cheers, Walco
