Telling FR to conect to postres vi IPv4

[Alex Sharaz]

Was a bit of a silly question really. The db end was set up with only ipv4
addresses instead of an FQDN

As you said, specifying a static ipv4 address works but is a bit messy.

We;re tidying up the postgres end to use FQDNs and everything working over
ipv6 now
