Help! My computer has several IP channels available to it: The ethernet card, localhost, and a couple VMware virtual networks. If I am setting up a server, how do I bind a listen port to just one or some of them, not all? I would like to set up local services that I would prefer not to be accessible to the outside world. I haven't found anything like this in the docs - they all seem to assume that all network channels are alike.
For that matter, is there some way to set a net-mask or a list of IPs to limit who can connect to my service somewhere in the port settings, rather than manually checking every connection? I'm looking for speed and security here... I will ask feedback too. Unfortunately, the ability bind to only specific network channels (I forget the TCP/IP term) is a must for my project. If I can't, I must switch languages. That would be bad. Thanks for any assistance!
