You issue seems linked to this one : http://bugs.debian.org/560056.
"net.ipv6.bindv6only=1 breaks java networking"

You can "hot fix" that by doing :
sudo sed -i 's/net.ipv6.bindv6only\ =\ 1/net.ipv6.bindv6only\ =\ 0/' \
/etc/sysctl.d/bindv6only.conf && sudo invoke-rc.d procps restart

FYI, this is an upstream issue http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6342561
