 Hi, I found a bug running Pidgin 2.0 beta 7 on Fedora 7 test 4.

 When I set up an jabber account for out local network server I use my
 server's IP address in "Connect server" field usually.

 The IP of the server is 10.31.2.13 but this doesn't work with version of
 Pidgin bit it worked in all other versions of Gaim I tried so far.

 If I enter in "Connect server" field "server3" and in /etc/hosts
 "10.31.2.13     server3" that it works.

 I looked in pidgin log and it looks like pidgin tries to do an DNS lookup
 for 10.31.2.13 like that is the domain name and not the IP already!
