Accessing QSDA using _hostname_, instead of “localhost” is a feature enabled by a QSDA Pro Enterprise license. If using the free version or Desktop license, you can only use localhost.  
See here for limitations of the unlicensed version [Licensing](https://help.easyqlik.com/qsda/topics/idh-topic140.htm)

Note that you do not have to install QSDA on a server. You can install it on a desktop machine and make a connection to a Qlik Server.
