[FFserver-user] ffserver not starting: Address family not supported

[Oliver Seitz]

Hi!

I'm running a freshly installed debian wheezy. ffserver, be it the git 
version or a compiled release 0.8.2 version or even a debian-packaged 
0.6.2-4:0.6.2-5 version refuses to start using the sample .conf file.

Output is like this:

ffserver version 0.8.2, Copyright (c) 2000-2011 the FFmpeg developers
   built on Aug 24 2011 14:46:40 with gcc 4.6.1

bind(port 8090): Address family not supported by protocol
Wed Aug 24 15:20:04 2011 Could not start server

I'm used to find something on google... but not this time ;-)
Can anyone give me a hint on where to look? If any additional info is 
needed, please ask.

Thanks!
