+Summary: useIpAddress in tcp channel should be true by default, but is not
+
+Description of Problem:
+A tcp channel created using the config file method will not use the IP
+address when marsheling obj-by-ref. This results in 'host unknown' on
+the client side, if the server is not in the dns.
+According to MSDN documentation useIpAddress should be true by default:
+MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-
+us/dndotnet/html/remotingconfig.asp#remotingconfig_topic15
+
+"useIpAddress: allows you to determine if the IP address or machine name
+is used in the URL. This attribute is only used on the server side and
+the default value is true."
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. use a server that has no entry in any dns
+2. use the tcp channel to connect to the server
+3. the client will get a 'host unknown' when trying to talk to a 'non-
+wellknown' object return by a 'wellknown' object.
+
+Actual Results:
+'host unknown' exception
+
+Expected Results:
+working fine :)
+
+How often does this happen?
+every time
+
+Additional Information:
+ask me for sample code if you need, but that should be ovious to change.
