Is the hostname woody.lan1 valid from the machine itself?  If you run
'ping woody.lan1' on the WWWOFFLE server machine do you get a reply?

The only thing that I can think of is that there is a networking
problem of some sort.  This could be caused by not having 'woody.lan1'
in the hosts file on the WWWOFFLE server or by the DNS configuration.

If 'woody' works on all of the machines then it is best to use this as
the first entry in the LocalHost section.
