Hi all,
I had an issue where using the connectTo [1] function would fail to
connect to "localhost" if my wireless card was turned off. The moment
I turned on my wireless connection it worked. But if I use connectTo
with "127.0.0.1" [2] with my network off it works.

I confirmed that "localhost' resolves to "127.0.0.1" by pinging
"localhost" from command line with the Internet off.

Is this a bug in "connectTo"?

-deech

[1] connectTo "localhost" (PortNumber some_number)
[2] connectTo "127.0.0.1" (PortNumber some_number)
