One is reminded of the whole $cientology vs the internet shambles, at one point someone was deposed by their lawyers trying to find out who was running that "localhost" server because it had all their files on it ..... these are the same people who were trying to find out the identity of Major Domo, because he seemed to be a big wig in the whole internet cabal who were trying to take $cientology down
Do I understand it correctly? It loops back to the origin machine so they were seeing their own files? And they thought they were seeing the files on an external machine?
In 1999 I went for a class at a company who was trying to sell an XML database, there was a problem in the class when it turned out that someone in Germany on their corporate network had named their computer 'localhost'.
