I know this subject has been beaten into a bloody pulp earlier
(http://www.nabble.com/forum/ViewPost.jtp?post=12430002&framed=y),
however my colleague has brought up a couple of good questions:

 

1.	Why can't the client machine determine its name from InetAddress
instead of host headers?  Does InetAddress depend upon host headers or
DNS lookups?
2.	Are there any security implications on using the InetAddress?

 

Thanks,
