Changing bind address in futon does record the new address correctly in config 
files

                 Key: COUCHDB-1086
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1086
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Futon
    Affects Versions: 1.0.2
         Environment: Ubuntu 10.04
            Reporter: Michael Wiederhold
            Priority: Critical


1) I install couchdb and change the bind address in default.ini to 0.0.0.0 so I 
can access couch remotely.
2) In futon I change the bind address to 127.0.0.1 and then refresh the web 
page an the web ui disappears.
3) I go back into the config file default.ini and the bind address is still 
0.0.0.0.
4) I then go into local.ini and there is nothing except for comments.
5) I restart the server and it binds to 127.0.0.1 and I cannot see futon.

The issue is that when changing the bind address in futon, futon puts the new 
address in the config file with the highest priority which is in this case the 
geocouch config file, but the proper place to put the new bind address is in 
local.ini.

I marked this as critical because I can see it affecting a decent amount of 
users. Should be a quick fix.
