address as the Dispatcher's <code>--address</code> option?</p></div>Tasos Laskostag:support.arachni-scanner.com,2012-07-01:Comment/290213812013-09-25T21:39:28Z2013-11-08T22:38:23ZRPC over a WAN acts strangely<div><p>eth0 only knows of its internal network and it cannot bind to
the WAN IP... It's running NAT'd behind some Amazon magic.</p>
<p>Attached is the trace when I tried it anyway (replaced real WAN
IP with 5.5.5.5)</p></div>Miketag:support.arachni-scanner.com,2012-07-01:Comment/290213812013-09-25T21:47:27Z2013-09-25T21:47:27ZRPC over a WAN acts strangely<div><p>That's a good point, but since the Dispatchers need to know of
their external IP address I'll have to add a separate option for
that.</p>
<p>I'll let you know when I have this ready.</p>
<p>Cheers</p></div>Tasos Laskostag:support.arachni-scanner.com,2012-07-01:Comment/290213812013-09-25T23:16:21Z2013-09-25T23:16:21ZRPC over a WAN acts strangely<div><p>I've finished it, now running some tests and will be in
tomorrow's nightlies for you to check out. Will update this ticket
when the nightlies are up.</p>

"http://downloads.arachni-scanner.com/nightlies/">nightlies</a>,
you can use the <code>--external-address</code> option to specify
the address the Dispatcher should advertise to its clients.</p>
<p>Let me know how it works.</p>
<p>Cheers</p></div>Tasos Laskostag:support.arachni-scanner.com,2012-07-01:Comment/290213812013-09-27T14:46:11Z2013-11-08T22:38:24ZRPC over a WAN acts strangely<div><p>Confirmed that it works now.</p>
