InetAddress static method doesn't mock with PowerMockito

I am running into weird problem while trying to mock static methods in InetAddress. I am successfully able to mock static methods for many of other classes and all works fine, but InetAddress showing different behavior. I am using JUnit 4.x, Mockito 1.9.5 & PowerMock 1.5.6.

Given below test using Mockito and PowerMock, and InetAddress mocking works fine -

@RunWith(PowerMockRunner.class)
@PrepareForTest({InetAddress.class})
public class UtilityTest {

    @Mock
    InetAddress inetAddress;

    @Test
    public void testGetCurrentHost() throws UnknownHostException {
        mockStatic(InetAddress.class);
        when(InetAddress.getLocalHost()).thenReturn(inetAddress);
        when(inetAddress.getHostAddress()).thenReturn("1.1.1.1");
        assertEquals("1.1.1.1", getCurrentHost());
    }

    private static String getCurrentHost() throws UnknownHostException {
        return InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostAddress();
    }
}

When I put the given below method in some utility, InetAddress.getLocalHost() doesn't mock anymore and test fails.

Move it to Utility :

private static String getCurrentHost() throws UnknownHostException {
    return InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostAddress();
}

Now my test looks like (and fails) :

@RunWith(PowerMockRunner.class)
@PrepareForTest({InetAddress.class})
public class UtilityTest {

    @Mock
    InetAddress inetAddress;

    @Test
    public void testGetCurrentHost() throws UnknownHostException {
        mockStatic(InetAddress.class);
        when(InetAddress.getLocalHost()).thenReturn(inetAddress);
        when(inetAddress.getHostAddress()).thenReturn("1.1.1.1");
        assertEquals("1.1.1.1", Utility.getCurrentHost());
    }
}

Given below is my stacktrace - 

org.junit.ComparisonFailure: 
Expected :1.1.1.1
Actual   :192.111.111.121

I found a solution. change @PrepareForTest({InetAddress.class}) to @PrepareForTest({Utility .class, InetAddress.class})

I know that this post is kind old, but I found a solution.

Instead doing @PrepareForTest({ InetAddress.class }), you must do @PrepareForTest({ YouClassThatWrap.class }).

In here (https://code.google.com/p/powermock/wiki/MockSystem) it shows how to mock a SystemClass.

The code @PrepareForTest({ InetAddress.class }) will not work because Powermock cannot change a System class code, so you need to mock the "wrapper" class.
