[logback-user] UnknownHostException when using logback with logback.xml

Hi,

when I use logback without a logback.xml, everything works fine, but when I
add a logback.xml file, I get an UnknownHostException. This happens in the
ch.qos.logback.core.util.ContextUtil class, when InetAddress.getLocalHost()
is called. In our environment, there is no hostname mapping available to
the JVM, so the JVM cannot find one.

So why does logback require the IP at this point?
