ID 285102 - Render hangs if hostname is not resolved on Linux

Problem summary:

Inability to render using Renderman or Arnold on Linux versions.

Some users have had success in rendering, although it took over 2+ minutes for the render to start.

Users have had successful renders with Disk Renders, but not Preview or Live renders.

Steps to reproduce:

1.  Render any scene (preview or live render)
2. check render log

Workaround:

Users can edit /etc/hosts to resolve hostname with local IP address

Reproduced versions/platforms:

• Katana3.0v1- Linux
  
• Katana2.6v7 - Linux
• 
  

Expected behaviour:

- Successful Render

- Renderer to start immediately, instead of waiting

Actual behaviour:

render hangs for a long time before starting render.
