Hi,
I am using kiwix-serve to serve a local mirror of Wikipedia on my own machine. However, kiwix-serve listens to incoming connections from any machine on the network, not just my local machine, which I find undesirable for privacy and security reasons.
Would it be possible to add an option to kiwix-serve to only listen for local connections?
Thanks!
Hi Antoine
Thank you for your feature request
Yes, would be a good idea. I would simply add something like "--interface" command line option. One small complicated point: this has to work on OSX/Windows/Linux (and I don't know how to specify an interface on Windows).

Ticket moved from /p/kiwix/bugs/908/
This is implemented now in kiwix-serve
