Bind rails server to 127.0.0.1 by default

Question

I\'d like to bind the rails server to 127.0.0.1, instead of 0.0.0.0 so its not accessible when I\'m working from coffee shops.

Is there a configuration file where I can

If you are searching for Rails 5: Answer

In Rails ~> 4.0 you can customize the boot section of the Server class:

In /config/boot.rb add this lines:

require 'rails/commands/server'

module Rails
  class Server
    def default_options
      super.merge({Port: 10524, Host: '127.0.0.1'})
    end
  end
end
