Hi all,

I can't get to Futon from the world-wide-web on one of my servers. I have two 
identical servers, configured exactly as each other, but, on one, if I run the 
command:

netstat --listen | grep 5984

tcp        0      0 *:5984                      *:*                         
LISTEN      

And on the other, I get

tcp        0      0 localhost:5984              *:*                         
LISTEN      

Now, in both local.ini and default.ini I have

port = 5984
bind_address = 0.0.0.0

Is that the only setting I need to use/alter to get it to listen widely, or is 
there another option I'm missing? If not, is there a way to find out which 
files CouchDB used to configure itself?

The only thing I've noticed is that 

cat /usr/local/var/run/couchdb/couch.uri 

Shows 

http://127.0.0.1:5984/

on the inaccessible server, and

http://0.0.0.0:5984/

on the other.

Is it safe to modify couch.uri? Should I delete this file and restart couch so 
it rebuilds it?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,

Martin
