I think you can do what you need with bog standard Java Sockets. Assuming 
that this program will be listening for incoming connections on a 
ServerSocket, if your first action after ServerSocket.accept() returns a 
Socket, is to call Socket.getInetAddress(). You can easily check whether 
the InetAddress it returns is a local loopback connection or not: if it 
is on the local loopback, the IP address will be 127.0.0.1 or the IPV6 
equivalent.
