Unable to join Localhost when no Internet Connection #3

I've compiled via Maven successfully, and am successful in running the lobby server.

When I have an internet connection, I can join the server on localhost using SpringLobby 0.225 (win x32)
When I disconnect from the internet, my lobby loses its' connection to localhost and subsequent attempts to reconnect result in "Invalid Hostname", until the internet connection is restored.

Any chance there's something I can do with this? Recompile with a different (i have no idea) setting in a conf file to ignore chat channel/IRC server connection?

I've chosen to use SpringLS becase I don't know a way to install the complete set of dependant programs for Uberserver in Windows... I haven't developed an aptitude with programming and SpringLS has been easiest so far.
