doesn't the HTTPServer service <bind ...> element's host attribute allow one
to specify the host ip address to bind to?

e.g.,

<service class="org.apache.xindice.server.services.HTTPServer" 
docroot="./docs/" name="HTTPServer">
  <bind chunksize="32768" host="127.0.0.1" keepalive="16" linger="1000" 
port="4080" reverse="no" timeout="300" />
...


specifying the localhost ip address here should prevent all external host
access.  by default, i believe, it binds to all configured interface
addresses.

of course, if you need access from other than your localhost this won't work.
