Reject URL requests unless from localhost for dataimport

[Brian Lamb <br...@journalexperts.com>]

Hi all,

My solr server is currently set up at www.mysite.com:8983/solr. I would like
to keep this for the time being but I would like to restrict users from
going to www.mysite.com:8983/solr/dataimport. In that case, I would only
want to be able to do localhost:8983/solr/dataimport. Is this possible? If
so, where should I look for a guide?

Thanks,

Brian Lamb

If you are using Tomcat, perhaps you could use Valve to protect a given
context of your application I think :

<Context
    path="/solr/dataimport"
    docBase="${catalina.home}/server/solr/dataimport"
    privileged="true"
>
    <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve"
        allow="127\.0\.0\.1"
    />
</Context>

I did not test this, you have to tweak it ;)

Firewall? It's easy to set up and the most low level. You can also use a proxy 
or perhaps manage it in your servlet container.
