Avoid a network error with iCal and a local WebDAV server
You must be meaning 127.0.0.1, not 127.0.0.0!?

I have to reply to myself. heheheh.
Avoid a network error with iCal and a local WebDAV server
Actually, it doesn't matter if 127.0.0.1 or 127.0.0.0 is used. All adresses between 127.0.0.0 and 127.255.255.255 are loopback adresses. Although usually 127.0.0.1 is used, according to RFC 1700 (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1700) all adresses stat start with 127 refer to the same computer and should never allowed "escape" onto the actual network by the TCP/IP-Stack.
What disturbs me more is that the WebDAV-Server returns an error upon loopback access via the external IP. Is that some kind of security feature? It makes not much sense to me. |
