Thread: IPv6 connection / JDBC (?)

Hi!

You online form still doesn't work (and my subscription to a mailing list 
wasn't answered either)...

I run pg7.4 on a SuSE 9.1 (IPv6) machine (linux 2.6); despite I added 

host    all         all         ::1               
ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff        password

to my pg_hba.conf, connecting to the database via JDBC (pg74.213.jdbc3.jar) 
fails:

org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: A connection error has occurred: 
org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: FATAL: no pg_hba.conf entry for host 
"::1", user "foo", database "bar", SSL off

Is there any chance that connections from your machine to ::1 don't look
like they are coming from ::1, but some other local address?  If so the
mask portion of the pg_hba.conf entry would not match.  Just an idea.
