RE: Restricting access to localhost for an HTTP connector

[Mark Claassen]

Thanks.  I thought I heard that it was possible though the address, but was not sure.  I read this in the docs, but I guess I didn't / don't understand the short explanation of "address".   From: Filip Hanik - Dev Lists [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 08, 2006 1:24 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Restricting access to localhost for an HTTP connector yes, you can bind the connector the 127.0.0.1, meaning it will only listen on that address use the "address" attribute in the connector http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/http.html Mark Claassen wrote: Is there to configure an HTTP Connector to only allow connections from localhost? We have a server that has an HTTPS port that handles all public access. However, we would like to leave a non SSL port open for a monitoring program we have running on the same machine. We would like to not allow anyone else to be able to access the non-SSL port. I know that the apache webserver has mechanism to do this, but I was wondering if a standalone tomcat could also do what we need.
