One of my table has the column type as inet. And when I try to perform insert operation using String as the type for inet column, it's saying "column "ip" is of type inet but expression is of type character varying:", which is perfectly valid exception. 
Now, my question is how do I instruct jdbcTemplate to use inet type instead of String. I'm trying something like: 

```
MapSqlParameterSource params = new MapSqlParameterSource();
params.addValue("ip",new SqlParameterValue(Types.??, conn.getIPAddress()));

```

The inet type is not listed in Types class, what shall I pass?

P.S. I'm using PostgresSql version 8.4.4.
