Thank you for these very helpful responses. To Andrew: I suspected I would have to set something in app.config, but was unsure what to set. To Alexander: I do also have nginx already running (as a front-end proxy for Jetty), so I will set it up as a proxy for Riak as well. - Stefan Scott On

Testing aside, I would not bind a production riak to an external interface. The recommended method is to access riak via an intermediary like nginx. -alexander On 2010-12-01, Andrew Stone andrew.j.ston...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Stefan, You need to configure Riak to listen on the right interface.
