I've been able to fix this by doing:

               try {
                  InetAddress addr = InetAddress.getByName(iface.getAddress());
                  String saddr = addr.toString();
                  saddr = saddr.substring(saddr.indexOf('/')+1);
                  getLogger().info("Restricting "+host.getName()+" to
address "+saddr);
                  vhost.setServerAddress(saddr);
               } catch (UnknownHostException ex) {
                  getLogger().severe("Cannot resolve host name
"+iface.getAddress());
               }

Should I have to pass in the resolved address ?
