Running server remotely (changing the ip address without changing localhost)

[JackBonnellDevelopment]

It would be great if we could specify the ip address of the software so that it makes it easier for customer using our aws platform to set up without having to redirect their localhost variable.

I just tried running the server remotely. It works fine for me. I don't understand exactly what is your situation. What do you do to the localhost variable, and why?

Please give me a more thorough explanation of your use case, and I'll try to help.

Is there a way of setting the variable when starting the code rather than setting the localhost variable?
example:
lynsyn_xvc -ip 192.168.3.1 -p 2524

I don't understand why you need to set a localhost variable. You start lynsyn_xvc on the computer where the Lynsyn board is connected. Then you can connect to it from Vivado running wherever you want. Connect to it with the IP address of the computer running lynsyn_xvc and port 2524

Maybe the confusion is the suggested URL printed out by lynsyn_xvc. Don't worry about this URL. Use the IP you think is correct, if lynxyn_xvc gets it wrong.
