What I mean is to connect the containerized middleware ShinyProxy to the web server at 127.0.0.1:8080, instead of the current 0.0.0.0:8080. How shall we proceed? Shall we do a clean upgrade to Ubuntu 20.04 that wipes the disk? Or shall we just change the web server for now?

As I have to design a web app for my new job, I learned how to set up a Nginx web server with TLS certificates, set up the firewall etc. If you would be willing to drop Apache, I could install that on Helos as well. This is up to you.
This looks doable, as there is no other web app apart collec and collec legacy running there. So ok with me.
What we can also do, is connect the app to the web server via the loopback interface instead of the host.
You mean a socket?
That is apparently more secure. I know how to do this in Nginx, but not in Apache.
Well we have a capacity problem, not a security issue. -- Cheers, Thomas Krichel http://openlib.org/home/krichel skype:thomaskrichel
