Changing listening host for webdav

[jthomaschewski]

I'm running nginx on a different host and want to deploy seafile webdav which is currently not possible because it's listening on 127.0.0.1 only and not configurable (hard configured in seafile-controller.c).

It would be great to have an option "host" in seafdav.conf to configure interface on which webdav http or fastcgi service is listening.

Currently (2.1.0/master) host is hard configured to "0.0.0.0" (all interfaces) for webdav http service and not set for fastcgi (defaults to 127.0.0.1).

Is there any reason why "--host 0.0.0.0" (seafile-controller.c line 372) is only set for non fastcgi seafdav only?

too bad, I have exactly this issue (nginx and seafile on different hosts).

Stumbled into the same issue. I would propose to add another seafdav option, host which allows you to configure the IP address to listen on. start_seafdav() seems to be the relevant code portion for this (and like a very easy fix), but I'm not sure what is additionally required for adding new options.
