TCP/IP, HTTP, HTTPS
YES, NO
NO
The LocalOnly (LOCAL) communication parameter allows a client to choose to connect only to a server on the local machine, if one exists. If no server with the matching server name is found on the local machine, a server will not be autostarted.
The LocalOnly (LOCAL) communication parameter is only useful
if DoBroadcast=ALL (the
default)
LocalOnly=YES uses
the regular broadcast mechanism, except that broadcast responses
from servers on other machines are ignored.
You can use the LocalOnly (LOCAL) communication parameter with the server to restrict connections to the local machine. Connection attempts from remote machines will not find this server, and the Locate [dblocate] utility will not see this server. Running a server with the LocalOnly (LOCAL) communication parameter set to YES allows the network server to run as a personal server without experiencing connection or CPU limits.
