Thanks Peter, but I'm afraid you're speaking Greek to me. Would
localhost matter if the app is trying to connect to a remote server?
Does LC need to know about ipv6 or is that handled at the OS level?
Sorry to be so uninformed, I'm out of my depth here.

I don’t know if this will help but I believe host can get converted to ::1
under ipv6. I know that I used to have an issue on my OS X a few versions ago
and had to use 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost in URLs.

I'm not sure about the other users but the latest one is on OS X. Could this
affect Macs too?

OH, thought just occurred to me, based on something that happened in
another thread. If they're on windows, and had a proxy set up at some
point, then the proxy was disabled.. The information about the proxy still
shows up greyed in the settings. And it seems that LC decides the proxy is
still active even though it isn't. The browser would work, because it
knows the proxy has been disabled. The solution, is to clear the proxy
information from the settings, even though the proxy settings are
technically already disabled.

The hosts file can be set up to provide specific name to ip address
mappings. 99.9% of the time its not used, and if it is, its often a
hijack. Along with the hijack thing, its also possible that a proxy has
been set up unbeknownst to the user, and its munging something as it
decides where they want to direct the user, rather than where the user
actually wants to go.
Can you post some of the gibberish?

Out of thousands of users, occasionally one can't connect and repeatedly
gets an invalid host address error. What causes those? All users are
sending to the same server at the same domain. Naturally they all say it's
only our app and never happens in a browser.
Everything I've found about it is mostly gibberish to me. Is this
something to do with the hosts file on the computer? The latest report says
it happens on different networks (home and school) so I assume it's
specific to his machine.
