Re: php_hostconnect: connect failed

After further testing, it appears that the function works as expected if I use the IP address rather than the hostname. Perhaps this is an Apache problem, rather than a PHP problem, but I cannot see how. The ServerName is correct in apache and apache responds correctly with redirects etc. Any ideas?
