[ome-users] [Windows] Help with accessing webadmin/webclient system through browser

[Mark Woodbridge]

Hi,

Changing lib/python/omero/plugins/server.py does work but I wouldn't 
recommend it.

The django built-in webserver is slow and insecure and is therefore only 
suitable for testing (and possibly accessing WebAdmin). If you want to 
allow access to WebClient from other machines then you should follow the 
mod_python instructions on the OMERO website.
