While running tests using SSH tunnels to connect a machine running web2py to itself, I noticed that the variable hosts in admin/models/ access.py does not include the IP address which was used to start web2py, only 127.0.0.1 and the machine's host name.
An example of the connection is: client machine ---> port22: web2py machine : port x ---> port 8000 : same web2py machine where the web2py machine is also running the SSH server which establishes the tunnel to port 8000. request.env.remote_addr has the IP address of the web2py machine, not 127.0.0.1, so the connection is deemed insecure and rejected. Is there any reason not to have the web2py machine IP address in the hosts in access.py?.
