localhost/127.0.0.1 problems...

[Emmanuel Lécharny]

Hi !

I was suprisingly hit another time by a failing test, where the client
is trying to connect to a server using "localhost" when the server was
listening on "127.0.0.1".

I think we should get rid of those two Strings in our code (mainly tests).

There is a way to get the localhost and its name in java :

    String hostName = InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName();

and

    InetAddress hostName = InetAddress.getLocalHost();


This is what we should use.

Thoughts ?
