Alexis,
What version of ROS and Ubuntu are you running?
Also, could you try compiling and running the attached code? It uses a
similar call to the place that generates that error regarding finding
AF_INET addresses (comes from rosed xmlrpcpp XmlRpcSocket.cpp). I'm
wondering what network addresses you actually have if you don't have
AF_INET addresses for localhost when disconnected from the network...
