I've got a question/request from a customer:
Is it possible to allow only certain IP addresses to login to the Servoy Application server?

Got to say, 'Yes', here

But it would be down to your Router/Firewall configuration as this is not something native to Servoy Server

But it would be nice to be able to configure this in the Servoy Server Administration, though... :wink:

Easy: write your own plugin. (If you don't know Java many java companies will be happy to code it for you)

I guess that could be a nice option. I'll probably give it a shot in a while... or someone else would be so kind to write this plugin, because I do think customers would appreciate this option (mine do for sure :wink:

).

Check out: http://forum.servoy.com/viewtopic.php?t=2452

With this plugin you can retrieve the IP Address of the client and thus build your login logic around the IP-Address of the client.

This plugin is a quickly build plugin, not supported yet, but in the planning of making it nicer with samplecode etc...

for now feel free to use it.

PS: Be aware that IP addresses can be faked, so basing your security completely on IP Address is probably not a wise idea

Thanks a lot, Paul! Great job. I'll try to build some security around it.

Hey Paul,

Any plans to finish up the "client chat" plug-in? That would be SUCH A COOL plug-in! Chat inside Servoy would be awesome.

I can help build a solution around it if you want....

Hi Bob,

Yes, still on the planning to make this messenger/chat plugin. But for now I'm busy finishing up another plugin that should have been finished allready....

As soon as that is done, Ill continue to work on the chat plugin (and also finish the IP Address plugin, as promized...)

Hi Paul,

Didn't mean to pressure you!

It's great that you're turning out great plug-ins.

Cheers,

Bob
