LAN Access
Open VidArch to the local network without exposing it unnecessarily.
By default, Docker publishes VidArch only on 127.0.0.1. This is the safest setting for local use or when behind a reverse proxy.
Allow the local network
In the .env file used by Compose:
VIDARCH_BIND_ADDRESS=0.0.0.0
AUTH_PASSWORD=choose-a-long-unique-passphraseRecreate the container:
docker compose up -d --force-recreateYou can then open http://IP-DE-LA-MACHINE:2499 from a device on the same network.
What not to do
Do not directly expose port 2499 to the Internet. Use an HTTPS reverse proxy, active authentication, and, ideally, a private VPN. See Security.
