I don't think this is correct. null as hostname just means the hostname has not yet been looked up, and toString() is explicitly lazy and doesn't do lookups itself. I actually think the Mauve test is incorrect since it assumes 0.0.0.0 is always the INADDR_ANY used and that the hostName for such an address is automagically resolved. I would propose to either change the Mauve test to be less strict in checking. Or if you feel IF_ANY should always have a resolved hostname to eagerly resolve it by adding something like this to InetAddress.getInaddrAny: inaddr_any.hostName = naddr_any.getHostName(); Cheers, Mark
