Should a MAMP return ::1 as IP on localhost?

by

Same question, and found a valid solution, tested, works well. I wanted to have the ip addy – of 127.0.0.1 as well instead of having to accept the the ::1 and debate the whole IPv4/6 issues. So, i trolled for a few moments and fell onto a 2008 comment made by @Brad – here:
http://board.issociate.de/thread/489575/SERVERquotREMOTEADDRquot-returning-1.html

Summarizing – (on Mac OS – Mountain Lion in particular)

sudo vi /etc/apache2/httpd.conf

Find where your apache is ‘listen’-ing to the ips/ports, etc…
Typically this will be a line looking like this

Listen 80

Make it look like this:

Listen 127.0.0.1:80

Resave it.
Restart Apache.
Voila!

Now $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR] will look like this 127.0.0.1.

Hope it helps someone.
