Because the system getnameinfo() function cannot resolve "localhost" to "::1". # cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost ::1 localhost [other names omitted] You have two lines with "localhost" and by default many Linux distributions allow only one line per hostname. This is wrong because it prevents some programs from using the ::1 address. Search for "linux host.conf multi on". Then complain to your distribution provider. Wietse
