    If you don't want to disable IPv6 (because you need it or you just want to
    leave your system as it was) here is a fix for maple:
    - change to directory /opt/maple9.5/jre.IBM_INTEL_LINUX/bin (maybe you don't
    have chosen /opt as a prefix, so take your prefix)
    - cp java java.orig (backup the java runtime executable)
    - create a new java file with the following content:
     
    #!/bin/bash
    /opt/maple9.5/jre.IBM_INTEL_LINUX/bin/java.orig
    -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack="true" $*

    (Modify the /opt prefix if you don't have installed maple there)
    - chmod 0755 java (make the just created file executable)

    This fix will start maple in ipv4 only java and you don't need to touch the
    rest of your system.

    If you have any questions, please drop me an email.
