Hey Javier,
The IP i'm trying to reach IS one of two IPs which correspond to a
virtual adress, but this is on an internal network, so the IP I am
aiming for is definitely not virtual.
Any other possibilities?
Cheers
Arjun

check if the website is a virtual website...most probably it is and
that is the reason you can only get at it with the hostname and not
the IP address...
