Is it possible to disable the https/localhost restriction for admin
and make it accessible by http? I recognize the security issues with
doing so, but I have an app that is deployed behind a firewall within
a small workgroup in which everyone on the local network is a trusted
user (i.e. would not be a problem if any of them had the admin
password). Given this setup, I'd like to be able access admin over
http from machines other than the server hosting the app. Is there an
easy way to enable that? possibly an edit to the default controller
in the admin app?
Thanks,
Philip

yes, comment the checks at the top of applications/admin/models/
access.py
