this reminds me when I was at a course from a big software company in the late 90s, and we had problems setting up the system at first because some executive in Germany had named his machine localhost.

How was that mess ever fixed?
I guess they contacted the executive and had them change the name?

on edit: I do remember we had to come back to the course the next day, so it took a day to get it fixed.
