Default Possible solution for Linux users

If you are running Linux (I'm running Debian but this will work on the Ubuntu too) you may find that ipv6 is bound and that is preventing eclipse and the ddms from connecting to the adb. To check if ipv6 is running, enter this into a terminal/shell:
Code:
sudo sysctl -a|grep net.ipv6.bindv6only
if you are then given a line saying "net.ipv6.bindv6only = 1" then ipv6 bind only is enabled. To disable it enter this in a terminal:
Code:
sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.binv6only=0
That will disable it. Now restart eclipse and try again. If that works then it was indeed ipv6 bindings that caused the issue. To permanently disable it edit the file /etc/sysctl.d/bindv6only and change the value from 1 to 0.
