Today I upgraded my Fedora system to Fedora 35 which included an upgrade to PostgreSQL 13.x.x. I did an initdb and restored my existing db from a dump. I modified pg_hba.conf to allow access machines on my local network host all all 192.168.1.0/24 trust I modified postgresql.conf to listen to all interfaces. Localhost works... [jerry@bigbox ~]$ psql psql (13.3) Type "help" for help. levan=# \q The below fails... the 'fe80....' is the ip6 address of big box. [jerry@bigbox ~]$ psql -h bigbox psql: error: FATAL: no pg_hba.conf entry for host "fe80::fe3f:dbff:fed1:f62e%enp7s0", user "lxxx", database "lxxx", SSL off Using the ip4 address of bigbox works [jerry@bigbox ~]$ psql -h 192.168.1.75 psql (13.3) Type "help" for help. lxxx=# I can connect to/from the other machines in my local network... Netstat shows that Postgres is listening on a ip6 interface. What did I have to do get the 'fatal' above case to work? Trapped in Steve Jobs Reality Distortion Field
