I'm trying to run cvsup on a private network connected via NAT.  Now, the
problem is that my host doesn't have a DNS entry, so I picked something
arbitrary for the hostname. When I try to run cvsup, I get: 

Cannot get IP address of my own host -- is its hostname correct?

Looking through the man page, I can't seem to find a place to specify the
IP or get around this.  Is there a way?  Please cc: melange@yip.org in the
reply, as I'm not on the list (too much traffic ;)...
