Description: Cannot open sockets using (p)fsockopen - problems using configure and inet_aton
PROBLEM FIXED!
Socket connectivity was already working. We were chasing ghosts!
It turns out that PHP-4 needs to have a local DNS (named) running on a BSDi 3.x or 4.x
machine in order to resolve socket connections other than localhost.
I would suggest adding this to the documentation.
