[Nfd-dev] [Ndn-interest] (NDN-js) query localhost from browser?

[Thompson, Jeff]

Thanks, Junxiao. I did  nfd.conf, set face_system.websocket.enable_v6=no and this works for me in both Chrome and Firefox.

Dear folks

The example was working for me yesterday, but isn’t working today. This turns out to be NFD Bug 3682<https://redmine.named-data.net/issues/3682>.

The workaround is to specify new Face({host:'[::1]'})
OR in nfd.conf, set face_system.websocket.enable_v6=no.

Yours, Junxiao

Hi Muktadir

This example works for me. I have Linux Mint 17 (based on Ubuntu 14.04) and NFD 0.4.1-1-g704430c.

In the source code of this webpage, I notice it’s connecting to ws://localhost:9696/ .
It’s better to change this to ws://127.0.0.1:9696/ in case the DNS resolver is not resolving ‘localhost’ to a loopback address. A WebSocket face is considered local only if it uses a loopback address.

Yours, Junxiao
