Ah, sorry, you're right. Has this changed since 1.13?

I was testing with 1.13 and swear it was bound to 127.0.0.1, but since
installing 1.14 it is bound to 0.0.0.0.

Also a page i read said it bound to 127.0.0.1/lo. I am aware of
firewalling etc - shouldn't be an issue.

Nevermind. I will try now that it is bound to all interfaces.

Thanks,
