I'm noticing something kind of strange, perhaps someone on the list can help me understand...
I have a little test program (I'm running the latest synapse release, Lazarus 0.9.25 svn, and FreePascal 2.2.2 under Ubuntu 8.04) which uses a THTTPSend object to retrieve a web page. Everything works as expected. However, if I create an entry in /etc/hosts, my program doesn't seem to honor it. In other words, if www.example.com is actually 1.2.3.4, and I create an /etc/hosts line which indicates that www.example.com is actually 4.3.2.1, watching the traffic generated by my program I see that it's still going to 1.2.3.4, even though ping, firefox, etc. all seem to go to 4.3.2.1. I've compiled a similar test program in Kylix, using the same version of Synapse, and it does what I expect it to do, which confuses me even more... Anybody have any ideas?
