yes, I had this issue before (we are on 9.04 as well).
it has to do with the hosts file.

Erin, can you send your hosts file?

I think you want to make this the first line of your host file:
127.0.0.1       localhost

Which Ubuntu, if memory serves defaults to the name of the machine instead
of localhost.
