Hey Matto,

I am fairly new to SOGo myself but will give this my best shot! :-)

I am unaware of a WOIPaddress option (or something similar) but there is
"WOHtppAllowHost" which by default is set to "localhost" (I have
explicitly set this in my ".GNUstepDefaults" just to be sure).

Thanks for the suggestion.

However, that parameter does not appear to have any effect on my system.
I tried setting it alternately to "localhost" and "127.0.0.1" (from being
unset/unspecified before). In both cases, after a restart the sogod process
was still listening on 0.0.0.0 (i.e., all interfaces), and would still
happily
try to service requests from a remote laptop (i.e. pointed at the URL
"http://my.server.com:20000/";).

Ah-ha... I think the answer must have shown up on this list at some point,
because my memory jogged and I remembered what to do.  The trick is to
supply the listening address to the WOPort parameter:

  WOPort = "localhost:20000";

This does in fact cause sogod to only listen on the 127.0.0.1 interface
(at port 20000).

The configuration guide mentions WOPort, but neglects to mention this feature.

...
SOGo itself cannot be accessed directly *usefully* --- yet it still exposes
its half-baked HTTP implementation to the outside world. The default setup
should not allow this at all.

(I do think the configuration guide should also suggest setting this parameter
for the typical setup.)

Anyways, hopefully I didn't lead you down the wrong path... :-D

Hi,

Is there a config option to specify which net interfaces sogod binds to?
This would be the analog to WOPort, for IP address instead of port
number.

The use case I have is to tell sogod to listen on localhost only.
In a simple setup with apache and sogod on the same host, there is
typically no good reason for sogod to accept connections from anywhere
else.
