Re: Connection Problem

Hi Radoslaw,

A Thomas Markus sent me a workaround. See below.

---
maybe this is your problem
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=560056

try to start your java class with -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
---

Using the -D option running java works.

Now to sort out my l0 issue!!

Thanks to everybody for your assistance. At first glance I thought it
was a JDBC issue and I'm sorry to have troubled you all when it is
related to something entirely different.

Regards,
Rob
