Unable to use machine name for hostname

I can succesfully connect to my databases via DBManager Pro using either localhost or my machine name. However, the only way I can get the ODBC connector to work is if I specify localhost for the hostname in both the user settings and the ODBC settings.

Why can't I get the machine name to work here? I'm sure it worked before when running under Windows 2K. I am now on XP SP2 with Windows Firewall enabled.
