Do you have a nameserver on your network? Does it work? Can
your machine resolve domain names? Does your machine have
a name that can successfully be resolved?

Another way would be to specify the machine's name in the
"hosts" file.

Even another way is to *not* let CL-HTTP resolve names.

Contact me by mail if you need specific help.
