In a round about fashion, we found out to use "::" (2 colons) in v6 for 0.0.0.0 (v4). Now it is working fine.
NetworkServerControl serverControl = new NetworkServerControl(InetAddress.getByName("::"),1527); thanks much, Dave Been Enterprise Search Development [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone 510-222-3926, Cell 928-699-0488 "Manjula Kutty" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 09/06/2007 12:38 PM Please respond to "Derby Discussion" <derby-user@db.apache.org> To "Derby Discussion" <derby-user@db.apache.org> cc Subject Re: ipv6 and Network Server hostname Hi Dave, While doing some testing on the Ipv6 machines, I started the server as java org.apache.derby.drda.NetworkServerControl start -h 2002:92a:8f7a:13:9:42:74:19 So instead of giving 0.0.0.0 I gave the full IP address. Did the same for the localhost also. Hope I answered your question. If you need any more information regarding derby on IPv6 please let me know. Thanks, Manjula.

(I believe this was for windows only. is that correct?) Is there an equivelent ip for IPv6? thanks Dave Been -- Thanks, Manjula.
