Need to be able to change localhost to alternative domain or IP #20

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
The server only runs under localhost:9999.  Would be great if we could adjust 
this setting.

I'm trying to run NavBot under OSX/Parallels.  So I need to key in a different 
IP or domain other than 
localhost.  Appears to work fine in this set up but everytime I hit a link 
everything appears to be 
hardcoded with the localhost:9999 

Maybe its just a case of using relative links?  Either way am going to try and 
set up Apache proxying 
to get this to work.

Should be easy enough to change in the next revision. If not to a nice 
user-friendly 
box then at least to make it a registry setting...

That would be great!  Dare I ask if there is an ETA for the next revision?

You're welcome to ask, but there's no ETA at the moment. Another short-term 
solution 
for you might be to use SSH to forward the NavBot connection to another host - 
see

g.htm
l for details.

Hmm.. never got the port forwarding to work.. can't change localhost on OSX 
without
ramifications. I noticed G was released -- are there release notes?  Was this
enhancement included?  If so, I can't see any obvious way of activating it.  
Here's
hoping...

Bother, sorry to hear that modius. I didn't make any changse regarding the 
hostname 
but if I'd known the port forwarding hadn't worked out for you I'm sure I 
could've 
slipped a change in. I'll have a look and see if I can't put something in the 
SVN to 
fix it, perhaps via a registry setting, then send you the new version by email.

Ahoy there... me again.  Just bumping this ticket to say would still love to 
see this enhancement if you have the 
time.

@Mark: Instead of a registry setting, you could overload the PageServer 
constructor
to accept a port number, then have the default constructor point to the overload
using 9999.  I'm already having issues with UAC in Vista not liking this; 
registry
manipulation could inadvertently make it worse.

@Munged92: The registry setting would be in the application-specific area, and 
would 
be set by the user simply as a way of telling NavBot which alternative port to 
use, 
as a simple alternative to the GUI. But there should be time to get this into 
the 
GUI in the next revision. I'm afraid this didn't make it into H, though.

Looking forward to trying it out.

Any news?

Vote 1 this change: I'm currently using a workaround. Using a hex editor on the
EveMarketTool.dll file, you can search and replace any ASCII text of 
"localhost" and
replace it with a custom _nine_ character hostname of choice.
It's ugly, but if you can't wait for the next version, then this may be an 
option.

I'm adding a applications config file for NavBot that will let you specify
the URL prefix and other things. From my understanding though, the
HTTPListener class still listens on all interfaces but will only accept
requests from the specified prefix.

Rev. K (Beta 2) allows you to configure the URLPrefix and many other
things. It's available for download now :^)

What would I need to connect to instead when running parallels?
