I've just installed slimserver and alienbbc on a new linux server. 

When I try to listen to a BBC station I get this in the log: 

2007-09-28 22:39:12.9029 ERROR: scanRemoteURL: Can't connect to remote
server to retrieve playlist: Couldn't resolve IP address for:
www.bbc.co.uk.

2007-09-28 22:39:36.3856 ERROR: Async: Couldn't resolve IP address for:
www.bbc.co.uk

...yet I can resolve/ping www.bbc.co.uk just fine. 

So, I've now put an entry in /etc/hosts for www.bbc.co.uk which has
made it work, but I don't want to leave it like this, so I need to
understand why it was failing. 

Anyone have any ideas? I'm guessing it's possibly somehow
permissions-related, but I can't imagine how.

Thanks,

Jon.
