Hello,
I just got zope up and running in a "simple" configuration with zserver..
My problem is that the http-part of Zserver somehow
does not recognise the hostname.
Sadly, it replaces it with "localhost.localdomain" (instead of using the IP-address),
which  of course will break any links when called from a remote host.

Oddly enough, the ftp-part has absolutely no problem in finding it.
See below:

Any idea ?
I really would appreciate any hints.

Thanks a lot.
