Palm Network Access over BT bypasses host PC's hosts file ..

Archived from groups: comp.sys.palmtops.pilot (More info?)

I am having trouble getting full Palm network access through BlueTooth
working because it is apparently bypassing my host-side (Windows) hosts
file. When I am on the Internet on my W2K laptop using "real" Internet
addresses, BT access works just fine. When I try to use localhost and
redirect specific traffic to software on my PC (like Hamster or nntprss), I
lookup failures. It seems to me like the BT should be just like every other
host-side app in that it should "pass through" the hosts file just like
everything else. Is there a way to make this so?
