Mac out of memory error on socket.bind

hi all,
I'm trying some simple python socket programming on my powerbook
(OS9.2) and I'm getting an 'out of memory' error when I try to bind a
socket, i.e.:
HOST = '' # Symbolic name meaning the local host
PORT = 50007 # Arbitrary non-privileged port
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.bind((HOST, PORT)) # errors here
It only fails when my network connection is unplugged (I'm doing my
playing around while I commute) and works fine when I have a valid
connection.
Is there a setting under TCP/IP that'll let me do this sort of
localhost-only socket programming while I'm offline?
thanks,
jim
