try setting both to * for testing. when you get the connection, you'll see the host you should be using.

I don't like using localhost, i would use 127.0.0.1 if you must. Addionaly, make sure your services are connecting using that same hostname/IP (in it's config files.

If you set your services to connect to 127.0.0.1, the IRCD will reconize it as comming from 127.0.0.1, so using localhost will cause a mismatch.
Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level, then beat you with experience.
