Hi,
on my notebook I use a USB-Lan-Adapter. It is called usb0 in my network settings. The obmin gnome shell extension doesn't detect this and is running with the loop back adapter (127.0.0.1). But with this loop back adapter I cant share files with others.
Is it possible to tell the obmin extension which network interface should be used?

Hi, @focmb! Can you provide an output of the:
hostname -I
and:
sudo ifconfig
Actually, Obmin server runs on all network devices like eth, wlan and virtual devices (VPN, Qemu and others)...
No, it's not possible to tell the extension which device to use now. But It's possible to do in future versions.
Thanks for report! It could make the application better.
