lighttpd & scgi

[simur612]

hi

i just setup a new server with lighttpd and added scgi as shown in the wiki.

Code:
scgi.server = (
"/RPC2" =>
( "127.0.0.1" =>
(
"host" => "127.0.0.1",
"port" => 5000,
"check-local" => "disable"
)
)
)


module added to mod-section as well. if i add a socket to scgi, start fails with : either socket or port -.-

but if i restart lighttp, i cant see any action on port 5000, i think i should see it with netstat -nlp | grep light but this only says:
> tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:80 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 2344/lighttpd <

any ideas?

did you also add the mod_scgi section to the modules location?


also, did you add the scgi section to .rtorrent.rc?

yes added to module-section. i installed rtorrent from ubuntu repos (rTorrent 0.8.2/0.12.2) but did not setup any .rtorrent.rc file yet. where should i create it? for which user?

you can't use rtorrent from ubuntu repos.

It needs to be compiled with xmlrpc-c

rTorrent must listen on this port. If you correct intall, configure and run it.

thx for your response, its running now

but what about security? can everyone access the rpc from inside the box?
