Looks like I have a solution. I had looked at the /etc/hosts file many times, but there was one of those "invisble" problems. It SHOULDN'T have made a difference but it did.

The short name of the host had been added by someone to the localhost 127.0.0.1 line, so my entries had no real effect.

Apparently, this confuses Networker to no end, and causes the server to use its on index for the store. Bizarre.
