getLocalName() and getLocalAddr()

Does anyone have any idea what would cause the following code ... 
 
out.println("request.getLocalAddr() = " +  request.getLocalAddr() +
"<br>");
out.println("request.getLocalName() = " +  request.getLocalName() +
"<br>");
 
within a .jsp file running in WAS 6.0, to product results with the
address and host name switched?
 
My results running locally within WDSC are
 
request.getLocalAddr() = localhost
request.getLocalName() = 127.0.0.1

 
When I deploy to a production WAS 6.0 server I get the server values
switched also.
 
Seems like this may be a DNS issue somewhere, or I am just doing
something stupid somewhere.
 
Thanks in advance.
