Ok, this probably explains the problem, since my Roxen server was its own
DNS server, and I was having DNS server issues at the time that I was
configuring my websites, but I didn't know it. So the addresses were
probably not resolving correctly. (I guess thats one good reason to always
have a hosts file backup for local host names instead of solely relying on
the DNS server.)
