Nick Burch commented on TIKA-1714:
----------------------------------
We do support the {{--host}} option on Tika Server, maybe we should just have
special handling for {{*}} to mean bind on all addresses (v4 and v6)? The
Python code could then do {{java -jar tika-server.jar --host *}} to get the
behaviour it wants, without affecting the "secure by default" configuration
> Consider making default host for Tika Server 0.0.0.0 instead of localhost

> I noticed in Tika-Python on Windows while fixing some bugs that by default
> Tika Server binds to localhost which means that the Tika Server running on
> Windows isn't available to external hosts trying to access it on <host
> name>:9998. I think the default behavior is that it *should* be available
> externally, meaning, we should probably bind to the special address, 0.0.0,0
> which binds to all interfaces.
