YACReaderLibrary only listens on IPv6 was created by echoscreen

Upon installing YACReader on Ubuntu 20.04 and starting the server, it seems to only be listening on:

Code:

tcp6       0      0 :::41787                :::*                    LISTEN      92150/YACReaderLibr

I'm unable to connect to this using the iOS client. Any suggestions?

Hmmm, maybe the port is already in use (?), did you try with another port?

It's definitely not in use. I changed the port and just as before, it's listening only on IPv6.

For what it's worth, the server options displays the IPv4 address only, and is selected. It's listening on wlan0 (well a systemd name, wlp3s0).

Correction -- Actually, changing the port did the trick. netstat still doesn't show that it's listening on its IPv4 address, yet the iPad client was able to connect nonetheless. I don't know how (as the original port was not in use), but I'm happy it's working now :cheer:
