Do any of the lines in your your config files (specifically the hosts file for that host and the lines that hold its ip addr or port) have extra spaces at the end of the line, after the ip addr or port #? It bit us the other day.. the libc call to resolve the service was assuming the port # was a service name since it had a non-digit in it and it was looking for a service of "696 " in /etc/services and failing. Guus: someday when you are bored :) you might want to have the code trim spaces off of the end of those lines. No biggie tho since really it is a config file malformation not a code bug.
