[#20050911200, jdk1.4.2_09, RH Fedora Core 4] Nb network communication is completely broken on 'RH Fedora Core 4' platform and other Linuxes which are shipped with IPv6 enabled. Nb cannot connect to bundled servers, Auto Update, etc. In fact it is JDK1.4.2 problem on 'RH Fedora Core 4' platform, not a Nb issue. However, we should relese note it since the jdk1.4.2_09 is supported platform for Nb 5.0 and some users can encounter this problem. Workaround: Run Nb with '-J-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true' parameter. Alternatively disable IPv6 (/etc/modules.conf or /etc/modprobe.conf). For more information see: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=5087907
