problem with pg_stat_activity view

Hello,

postgres version:  8.2.0.4

platform windows: server 2008

I check connections using:

SELECT pg_stat_get_backend_idset()

Now, I take the output and try to get the ip addresses using

select pg_stat_get_backend_client_addr(<integer>);

but for a local connection (simple login using psql), I get the next error:

ERROR:  invalid input syntax for type inet: "fe80::104d:416e:a8dc:c02e%12"

SQL state: 22P02

The same error occurs for simple “select * pg_stat_activity” (of course, as it is based on the former function)

I noticed that for netstat –r –n, I got the next line (among the others):

12    266 fe80::104d:416e:a8dc:c02e/128

May the last 8 was removed and therefore the ip became illegal ?

Need your help

Thanks,
