The problem you're having is that "*" means "bind to all the addresses
on this machine", and for some reason IBM's strange and wonderful
implementation of the IP layer appears to give you an IPv6 address
from one perspective and not from another. The application (Postgres
in this case) can't fix this.

Best,
