Usually it is the resolver configuration that prevents scotty from
resolving host names. In most cases this is the broken SunOS resolver
library (you can find dozens of email on this topic in the archive of
this mailing list). The funny output on your linux box looks like a
serious error. However, since no one else has reported this problem so
far, I will assume for now that your linux system behaves a bit
unusal.
