Tomcat access

Classic Servoy
1

Hi

Starting with Tomcat version 8.5.5, I had to add following code in the server.xml file to get access from the outside world. In previous versions, this was not necessary. But as I read, they introduced the default to internal access only for security reasons.

In <Connector … (for port 8080 or another)

useIPVHosts="true"

and in <Valve …

resolveHosts="true"

Is this security wise an acceptable solution or are there better ones?

  • Servoy 8.1
  • OS X 10.11.6
  • Java 1.8.0_101

Best regards,
