Could anyone help with one or more of these questions: 1- I have web2py running on a machine and I want to be able to connect to it using an app LOCALLY. I want to use the local IP address of web2py server and a password as authentication. I get the ip address of web2py server and can store it in the database. I know I can access this machine using its ip address on the URL but how can I access it on an app that is running on a server on the internet? Should I ask for the IP address and compare it with the web2py server IP address and also check the password? Can I use web2py authentication? This is happening locally so there is less of security of authentication concern than when it is on the internet. Should I define a new server in the controller like local_auth() in the controller and a form in the login page to get the ip and password and compare and issue the authentication? 2- Is there a way to do two methods of authentication on the same functions? Meaning that I want to do the above authentication when I'm local and connected to the same network and use web2py's authentication using email and password when I'm not local and connected via internet? Appreciate any help, specially if there is an example already developed
