Re: [web2py] admin access from remote machine

2010-02-02 Thread Wes James
If w2p is running on port 8000 and you need someone to get to that
port you need to make an exception in the firewall.


Click Start then run
type in firewall.cpl press enter
click on Exceptions tab
click on add port button
in name box put web2py 8000
in port number put in 8000
click on ok

Someone outside the box should be able to access http://ip-address:8000/app now

I use HTTPS and I can access from any LAN machine without any problem.
Follow http://www.web2py.com/AlterEgo/default/show/140 steps

I start the server with: python web2py.py --nogui -c server.crt -k
server.key -i 192.168.1.1 -p  -a myserverpassword

Re: [web2py] admin access from remote machine

2010-02-02 Thread Timothy Farrell

Al,

I run a similar setup.  But it matters which webserver you're using.  If 
you don't know, then you're using the built-in webserver.


If you can access the website from the server itself there are two 
things to check (this assumes the built-in webserver):
1) Did you configure web2py to serve on the '0.0.0.0' interface instead 
of '127.0.0.1'?

2) Could your firewall on Server 2003 (or otherwise) be blocking the ports?

Other than that, we need more details in order to help you.

Thanks,
-tim

Have you tried accessing your server with https:// ? I think it
should allow admin control over https.

[web2py] admin access from remote machine

2010-02-02 Thread Al
Hi,

I have just started to learn web2py recently. I have installed web2py
in a windows 2003 server and it runs OK, but I cannot access it from
any other machine. I have looked thru a few discussions which
described using tunneling and proxy stuff, is there a simple way to
disable such security - e.g, commenting a few lines of codes. As the
person who will be doing some data entry into my application cannot
sit close to the windows server, so I am kind of stuck.
