That's a fairly unique platform! Am afraid I don't have any
advice to give on it.
But WRT the hostname, what I meant was that if your machine is
called "workstation" you should be able to "ping workstation", and if that
doesn't work, add an entry to /etc/hosts so that "ping workstation" hits
127.0.0.1. It's a little chancy on Windows because I think Windows ping
will resolve and use SMB names whereas Java won't (though it also may be
different with/without WINS) -- I'm not sure how to do a good test on
Windows.
