Uwe Schindler commented on TIKA-1714:
-------------------------------------

In any case, I agree with Nick, we should not do this. Maybe allow to bind to 
all addresses using a System property or allow it to be configured. I have a 
lot of machines with multipe IP adresses, and I want external services only 
bind to one specific - so default should be ::1 / 127.0.0.1 or any ip adress 
the user passes as command line option / system property (like 
{{-Djetty.host=XXX -Djetty.port=XXX}}). The use is then also open to bind to 
IPv4 and/or IPv6 on his own.

> Consider making default host for Tika Server 0.0.0.0 instead of localhost

> I noticed in Tika-Python on Windows while fixing some bugs that by default 
> Tika Server binds to localhost which means that the Tika Server running on 
> Windows isn't available to external hosts trying to access it on <host 
> name>:9998. I think the default behavior is that it *should* be available 
> externally, meaning, we should probably bind to the special address, 0.0.0,0 
> which binds to all interfaces.
