Just want to make sure I understand what you're saying here, especially by 
'I can connect' and 'after the redirect'...  When you launch a browser and 
point it to http://localhost:3000 what exactly happens?  Does the same thing 
happen with http://127.0.0.1:3000 ?

Again, just to make sure I've got the picture, have you sat the two 
side-by-side, compared the process lists on the two, seen that they're 
exactly the same, but are getting different results?  If so, then one/more 
of the processes must be configured differently from the other.  One tool 
for checking this out is netstat.  Run it from a command window with 
 >netstat -h  to get a list of the options.

Not much help, I know, but it's a start ;-)
