Usually what happens is that a timeout situation is reached, which cause Base to hang. This situation was present even in the pre-Base versions of OOo, i.e. in the 1.x series. OOo seems to have problems caching hostnames, rather than IP addresses. If you know the IP address, I have found, as you did, that things work much better.
