Thanks for the tip!Do you know about the /etc/hosts file? That is where the mapping from IP address to host-name occurs (on your local network).
But by-number should bypass name lookup. Come to think of it without looking at Pans's source typical implementations do a DNS lookup first, if that fails tries to interpret the address as a number. Maybe WinXP or something else is faking DNS entries for numbers such as 127.0.0.1 which prevent the number from working?
