Proxy starts only on loopback-interface

Posted on 2006-02-23 14:24:00-08 by marv

Hello everybody, using the example from the HTTP::Proxy POD it's quite easy to get the Proxy up and running, but I wonder if it is possible to open the port on all local network interfaces, and not just on loopback. I tested the module with cygwin and AIX 5.1. I'm looking forward for any hints if and how this can be configured.

Re: Proxy starts only on loopback-interface

I'm sorry for any inconveniences, but I found the solution after having a CLOSER look into the documentation. Provide

$proxy->host( undef )

to open the port on all available interfaces.
