When you say 404, do you really mean that you get a 404? Or are you just
saying that to informally tell us that it doesn't work?

If the former, then it seems this has nothing to do with DNS and host
names.  The connection is being made in all cases. It looks like there's
something different about the HTTP requests that causes the server to react
differently.  You're writing the server, correct? Can you log output?

If the latter, then I guess you really mean that the connection fails.
