Hi Andrew, I am using your web2py build on openshift and noticed today that you submitted a bug report for wsgi that was causing your access to the web2py admin tool to fail. I wonder if you have tried the ssh tunneling steps in the web2py manual in 13.3 but using a port that openshift does not block. Did that work for you? Has anyone tried this on openshift?
I am still learning the openshift rules and haven't gotten this to work yet but would like to as it would be good to be able to use the admin tool over the browser in a secure way.
