[Dxspider-support] Spots rejected if connected from local network

Nope.
Any address from which you connect to the node expecting the node to
"masquerade" you as though you were a local user.
For example: typing 'dx' in a shell on the node machine needs 127.0.0.1
in there. Equally, if you telnet from an internal machine (say
192.168.1.10), if you add that to list it will act as though you are on
the machine as localhost. With all that that implies... Add '::' for
completeness.
The public names are the other two. Having said all that, reviewing the
code suggests that these are, at best, bandaids and will need fixing
before I release a mojo.
