I'm struggling to figure something out, hoping someone here can help.
Ive got an Amazon VPS and there's an application running on it.
The 3rd party application is (basically) a webserver, I can access its content with http://localhost:4848 but only on the local pc.
It doesnt accept any connections from outside localhost.
I've got an apache server running in the mean time.
I tried to create a page that puts in an "iframe src=localhost" idea, so that the public webpage mirrors the localhost.
Unfortunately I realized the iframe=localhost means it refers to the visitors localhost, not the server.
I dont think its possible to open the port 4848 to allow external connections as I think the app would simply ignore
anything that hasnt come from 127.0.0.1
Is there any way that I can set it up that I can access the webserver from an outside connection?
