It can be done if you need it. It's enough to call hb_socketResolveAddr()
but remember that in such case you will need fully functional DNS service.

Have you passed your server IP address and port as NETIO_CONNECT()
parameters?
If not then it only registers "net:" file IO API returning false
and server address and port has to be given in file name.
If you initialize valid server address and port using NETIO_CONNECT(),
i.e.
   ? "NETIO_CONNECT()", NETIO_CONNECT( "192.168.0.1", 2941 )
then later you can simply use:
   use net:path/filename
without server address and port.
