You are right that it could be done that way but I thought that it would be a
little easier/safer to just have 2 servers and have one set up with the props
so that it would only talk to one other machine (the internal machine) as
follows:
services.XmlRpcService.paranoid = true
services.XmlRpcService.acceptClient = 192.168.1.1
And the other server could talk to any one so it would not restrict based on
IP.
There are probably several ways to do it but I just thought this would be an
easy way if you needed to lock down certain services and allow others to be
more open.
