How Do I set up my home service on the network? #84

I would like to be able to render on a company-connected device in my home. Can I do that? How Do I set and modify configuration files?Thanks,

By default Blendfarm already listens to all IPs it can. There is not much useful you can change in the config. Exposing it to the internet however is a security risk, and you should only do this if you know what you're doing.

The acceptable (but still more risky than not) solution is a VPN to access the other network. The worst solution is port forwarding to the device.

BlendFarm does not use a secure communication medium as it is assumed to run in a safe environment. It supports an extremely basic password but that is not secure enough for this.

Thanks, I've found the interface for setting parameters.
