It does actually,
%systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts contains
127.0.0.1 localhost
#::1 localhost

And it is used, I added an arbitrary hostname and ip and tried pinging it, and it resolves.
Anyway, its not that the server doesn't answer on localhost.

If I browse to "http://localhost:4848/" I'm first redirected to "http://localhost:4848/asadmin/admingui/TopFrameset" where I get the 404 "The requested resource () is not available."

To further add to the confusion this morning when I turned on my pc I found that the situation has been reversed, it now gives the 404 for "http://cm-t-03:4848/" but "http://localhost:4848/" works.

Argh, what is causing this.
