I know on some of the earlier versions it would only be allowed to be accessed 
from the first IP address to hit the server, but
don't know if that is still the case now.

I can see the point of development meaning for LOCAL use only.  Local use to me 
mean only on the machine its installed on.  If you'r
wanting it accessible from any machine in your network or a few machines in 
your network, then its not a LOCAL development purpose
then.

The access as I see it is for the Localhost domain which is usually configured 
to 127.0.0.1. 

" This wouldn't make it any more likely to be used  unlicensed - would it?"
Ofcourse it would.  If you could access the application anywhere in the 
network, what would stop someone or a business developing an
intranet application and using the dev version to run it?  This is what the Pro 
version is for.  If the dev version was anything
more than a dev version, being local access only it would defeat the purpose of 
it being a dev version.

That's my take on it anyway

Subject: [cfaussie] CF Development version limitations

Hi All,

I've just set up a new development environment and practices at a new
job I've started working on and come across a limitation of the CF
Development version and I'm keen to understand what others have done
to avoid it.

The setup is as follows - pretty typical development setup with
Development Licences of CF on each of them.  We are using apache on
the machines as the web server to allow simpler management across all
the machines.

We also have a development server which is a full licensed copy which
we use for testing.

The problem is that we typically have a 3 of 4 different websites set
up on each machine which is nice and easy with apache and using named
virtual host we can have them all on the 127.0.0.1 address.

The problem is you can't use ssl on virtual named hosts (or on more
than 1) so we can only have SSL setup on one of the sites.

So question (finally) is: how do people get around this?

And for MM - is there a major reason why the Developer restriction
couldn't be one IP address and the entire 127.0.0.1 domain?  This
wouldn't make it any more likely to be used  unlicensed - would it?

Look forward to any thoughts or ideas,
Cheers,
Mark
