Subject: | tests fail when run without a network |
Many of POE's tests require at least localhost (127.0.0.1) to be
present. Some people don't have even localhost available, having
firewalled it completely for security reasons. While a lot of POE deals
with networking, it's still important not to fail the tests when a
network is absent.
Test POE with a complete "deny all" lockdown. Skip the tests that fail
in this environment.
