Yeah, that seems to be the issue. When I commented out the "::1.."
line it worked.

Perhaps it was only listening on IPv6 ? ::1 ?

wrote: 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"?
