unknown host name causes authentication failure #259

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Start authentication process with anonymous@unknown
2.Try to login() with a valid user
3.User/password are accepted
4.Verification for lastHostAddress compares last host, which is currently set 
to "unknown" value, to host address and it always fails...

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect a successfull login, but get authentication exception due to user 
jumping from "unknown" host to 127.0.0.1.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
SVN head on Vista

Does this issue affect only a specified browser or set of browsers?
Tried on IE7.
