Pulldata problems
Hi, I don't know if this is a bug report or just a work as intended with whom I've some problems..
I'm start using msgcache and pulldata, I've all of my hosts in the bb-hosts file with 0.0.0.0 ip address so that I can define the ip in the /etc/hosts and use it for every application that need it.
I've 2 hosts with pulldata defined as: 0.0.0.0 itromwb13 # pulldata
and when hobbitfetch try to get the data it will try to use 0.0.0.0:1984 instead of resolving and using the hostname. It's possible to have the pulldata=ip:port accept also hostname or better than this if the ip address is 0.0.0.0 use the hostname defined in the bb-hosts instead of the ip address?
Thanks

It works as designed, but it might not be the best way to do it. The attached patch will make hobbitfetch determine the IP-address from the hostname, if the IP in bb-hosts is 0.0.0.0.
It also takes care of your other requests for "pulldata=:2084" style syntax.
