Working fine locally as is described (local url only), I understand this is for security reasons (?). But would it be possible to work around this, this will be running on a local network anyway.
You mean it doesn't work on local network ip addresses ? I meant to include those but I must have overlooked it. My initial reluctance to allow all urls was indeed motivated by security concerns but I'm not that sure anymore that it's any relevant.
Yes, what I mean is that I can only reach the loopback interface with these httpGet requests, it seams. If these could be sent out to the ethernet interface I belive would solve this. A way to specifiy which http-server IP address i try to reach would be a good thing as well. Maybe it could follow the target specified in the OSC part?
