one more datapoint - I have localhost as the first entry in /etc/hosts
(where it belongs, I might add), but the test program correctly prints
out pinotnoir.media.mit.edu/18.85.16.104
What's the difference? I'm not running glibc, I'm using libc5. My
system is a mostly-Redhat-4.1 system with libc-5

I got a different result. When I've typed `hostname' on my
GNU/Linux machine, I've always gotten "zhivago.bbn.com", never
"localhost". When I first ran John Zinky's one-line test program, I
got localhost/127.0.0.1. When I put the "zhivago" line in /etc/hosts
above the "localhost" line,
The answer is pretty simple. The JDK finds out its information using
gethostname(). This information is something that's been previously
set at system boot up with the sethostname syscall. The problem isn't really
the jdk, it's how your system is setup. If you type 'hostname' on the command
line,

I'll bet that the first line in your /etc/hosts is:
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain
At least, that's the way it was with mine and, when I tried your program, I
got the same "broken" answer you got. After reading Per's message, I moved
that line below the second
On my box using java version "Sergey_Nikitin:12/21/97-23:13" and
glibc2 ( /lib/libc-2.0.5.so) the java.net.InetAddress.getLocalHost()
returns the name configured by the "hostname " command. Which also
is looked up for the IP address in the /etc/hosts file (not sure if it
uses DNS or not), b
Does anyone out there on the blackdown list have knowledge of this

Also works for me: Debian1.3.1, libc5.4.33 (no glibc), kernel2.0.33,
jdk1.1.3.
Could it be a glibc bug?
