Glassfish Startup problem -- /etc/hosts entry

I had an opensolaris environment on which I was running GlassfishESB. Since I had to connect to a local Network I had to make some changes to the /etc/hosts file and add an entry to the same.

After that I tried to restart Glassfish it did not restart. It failed at the following point

ADM1079: Initialization of AMX MBeans started

It gave the following exception in server.log. I had to modify the hosts file to make the server start again.
