What does your server definition look like?  Maybe it looks like

    (nntp "server.name")

Or maybe it looks like

    (nntp "server.name" (nntp-address "server.name"))

If the former, try to change the server definition to the latter.
Does that help?

IMHO, the kluge that Gnus sometimes uses the Gnus server name as the
host name for NNTP should be excised.
