Doing blastn remote db, getting error

Hi,

I am trying to use blastn and connecting the db remotely using the below, but, getting an error.

$ blastn -db nr -query file.fasta -out blast_output.out -remote

Above command is giving me the error “[SOCK::gethostbyaddr] Got "localhost" for local host address”. Can you please let me know if I need to setup any configuration.
