I propose the following addition to the documentation to catch a common
(?) newbie problem when using monotone:
The hostname resolves to 127.0.0.1 and monotone is not reachable from
the network. [I don't know whether this problem is more common on ubuntu]
If you agree with the following documentation patch I will commit it. (I
simply did not want to create a side branch for this small issue)
