Description

I have strong reason to believe that the mechanism we have in place for grabbing the IP address for a hostname does not work for hostnames defined in the hosts file. That is, I believe it will only hit against DNS for doing the name->IP lookup for the provided server name. This needs to be tested and, if validated, updated to check both DNS and the hosts file.
