How can I secure jetty to only allow connections from localhost? This means a connection to server A on System A from Client B on System B has to fail. I know I can do this by configuring my firewall (so please no answers about this). I just want Jetty to only listen on localhost(loopback).
I have not tried this but the usual method is to bind server to localhost (i.e. to IP 127.0.0.1). That means that Jetty server will listen to only connections that have localhost as their destination address.
A quick googling revealed this http://old.nabble.com/How-to-make-Jetty-bind-to-specific-IP-address—to11667378.html#a11669524 :
