[Haskell-cafe] Issue with "connectTo" function in "network" package

Hi all, I had an issue where using the connectTo [1] function would fail to connect to "localhost" if my wireless card was turned off. The moment I turned on my wireless connection it worked. But if I use connectTo with "127.0.0.1" [2] with my network off it works. I confirmed that "localhost' resolves to "127.0.0.1" by pinging "localhost" from command line with the Internet off. Is this a bug in "connectTo"? -deech [1] connectTo "localhost" (PortNumber some_number) [2] connectTo "127.0.0.1" (PortNumber some_number)
