When you debug an application eclipse will try to connect to it using JDWP. The target of the connection is probably something like localhost:SOME_NUMBER. I suspect that your machine cannot resolve an address for localhost. If you type:
nslookup localhost at a command prompt, it will probably fail to resolve. The following Sun Forum link might be of use: http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5138855 .
