Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
We are running Open WebUI in our office and need to access it from our house, too.
Since IPv6 is the only way to do so, we need IPv6 bind/listen/accept support.

Describe the solution you'd like
Listening to both IPv4 and IPv6 will be the best solution.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Adding an option for IPv6 will be also helpful.

Additional context
If you specify which file to modify, I'd like to do right away. Thanks for your efforts.

@justinh-rahb commented on GitHub (May 7, 2024):

IPv6 support in Docker is spotty at best. Being that this project primarily assumes any serious usage will be deployed as a container, this is unlikely to be a high priority. Our position is that these finer points of deployment can/should be handled by the user, similar to HTTPS support, through the use of reverse-proxy servers and/or other network infrastructure.
