Ah hah! That's exactly what it was, thank you very much ... now I'm off to sort 
out sourcemod and why it can't load sourcemod/sourcemod.cfg ... probably 
because there isn't one ....

The IP address used by default is taken by resolving the hostname of the 
current machine. You can very probably find the corresponding entry in 
/etc/hosts.

Let's say the host's name is "toaster", it is in the domain "local" and 
has IP address 192.168.10.54. The relevant /etc/hosts line should look 
like this:

192.168.10.54 toaster.local toaster

WARNING: The line is only used when the first entry after the IP address 
is the fully qualified hostname (i.e. hostname and domain). Use 
"hostname -f" to fetch it. It is common practice to use the format 
"<ip_address> <fully_qualified_name> <hostname_only> [aliases]" when 
building a line for /etc/hosts, with the aliases being optional.

Your problem is very probably a stray /etc/hosts line... or a 
non-existent one, with a misconfiguration of your DNS server. I'd check 
/etc/hosts first, though.

Cheers,
~~ Ondra
