Editing /etc/hosts seems like the right way to fix it.  I think the 

only alternative would be a Condor option to force binding to a 

specific interface or IP, instead of relying on the hostname.

NETWORK_INTERFACE = <ip address>

The only reason this doesn't break more software is most daemons bind 

to 0.0.0.0, so they listen on *all* interfaces, regardless of how the 

hosts file is set up.

BIND_ALL_INTERFACES = True

Doh!  I guess I should RTFM. :)

In my case I needed the real IP in /etc/hosts anyway, for another application, so it ultimately didn't matter.
