MMM-Remote-Control actually

sdetweil

@kusselin said in MMM-Remote-Control actually:

address: “localhost”,

this means ONLY apps INSIDE the same system can connect

SO, you need to change it to allow systems from OUTSIDE the pi to access

address:"0.0.0.0",
ipWhitelist:[],

this means any adapter can hear requests (instead of just the loopback adapter localhost)
and you are not filtering out client ip addresses

@sdetweil but iam in my own network at home…so i can get this 127.0.0.1

Or is this wrong?

kusselin

You are so great sdetweil :-)

so ist running:

config = {
	address: "0.0.0.0", 	// Address to listen on, can be:
							// - "localhost", "127.0.0.1", "::1" to listen on loopback interface
							// - another specific IPv4/6 to listen on a specific interface
							// - "0.0.0.0", "::" to listen on any interface
							// Default, when address config is left out or empty, is "localhost"
	port: 8080,
	basePath: "/", 	// The URL path where MagicMirror² is hosted. If you are using a Reverse proxy
					// you must set the sub path here. basePath must end with a /
	ipWhitelist: [], 	// Set [] to allow all IP addresses
															// or add a specific IPv4 of 192.168.1.5 :
															// ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.1.5"],
															// or IPv4 range of 192.168.3.0 --> 192.168.3.15 use CIDR format :
															// ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.3.0/28"],

thanks a lot again to you

@kusselin no… localhost means ONLY INSIDE the same machine… (127.0.0.1 is the ip address for localhost)

phone on wifi accessing MM on pi is a different machine

the default protection is a mirror hanging on the wall, no one would need to access that from outside the mirror…

oops remote -control does need
