I might have said that last part wrong. The docs should have it correct. On Mon, Apr 20, 2020 at 1:37 PM Arlen Beiler wrote: > TiddlyServer allows you to specify a range of IP addresses to listen on. > > There is more information here: > https://arlen22.github.io/tiddlyserver/docs/serverconfig.h

TiddlyServer allows you to specify a range of IP addresses to listen on. There is more information here: https://arlen22.github.io/tiddlyserver/docs/serverconfig.html#section-bindinfo You might need to experiment a little with different options. BindWildcard only binds to 0.0.0.0 and then filters

Mario Or is that Paranoia Mario? ;), I am glad you are reviewing it. My above solution is Actualy simple and effective. All I do is set the server local address to a 127.0.4.8x address. Rather than using 0.0.0.0 to host on the lan I use 192.168.1.8x for each server (currently additional ip addr

Hi Tony, Why don't you use the "hosts" file. It still works for Windows, Mac and Unix systems. It allows you to use your own domain names and assign them IP4 adresses. eg: URLs like http://ts.lan:8080... will be converted to 192.168.1.83:8080 http://bob.lan:8080 ... will be converted to

Scott, Yes you can, and I did so previously. However whatever you install, it may be a tiddlywiki server, or AMMPS LAMP MAMP or some other server they typically use port 80 or 8080 on 127.0.0.1 out of the box so a chance of a clash is high. You thus have to manage it. Bob will grab the next po

Hi Tony, Can't you just use different ports? 127.0.0.1:8081 for something and 127.0.0.1:8082 for something else? Maybe I'm missing what you are trying to do. Scott On Tuesday, March 31, 2020 at 8:28:29 PM UTC-7, TonyM wrote: > > Folks, > > I was exploring various alternatives for the local hos
