The problem is that the notebook is never launched to bound to a specific
interface. Could you please file a trac# against this?
The specific issue is that in twistedconf.tac, we start the server like so:
strports.service('tls:8000:privateKey=/Users/yqiang/.sage/notebook/private.pem:certKey=/Users/yqiang/.sage/notebook/public.pem',
factory)
It should read something like
strports.service('tls:8000:interface=
127.0.0.1:privateKey=/Users/yqiang/.sage/notebook/private.pem:certKey=/Users/yqiang/.sage/notebook/public.pem',
factory)
to only listen on localhost.
Someone more familiar with the notebook should probably write the patch,
since the behavior of this should depend on what the user specifies when
launching the notebook.
Cheers,
Yi
