403 - Forbidden: allow Dataverse to talk to DCM

[pdurbin]

vagrant up got my DCM up and running but post-installation I wanted to open it up so that I could communicate with it from Dataverse without "403 - Forbidden" errors.

I did something like this (Dataverse was on 10.0.2.2 for whatever reason):

[root@uiswhlpt2614019 ~]# cd /etc/lighttpd
[root@uiswhlpt2614019 lighttpd]# cp -a lighttpd.conf lighttpd.conf.orig
[root@uiswhlpt2614019 lighttpd]# vi lighttpd.conf
[root@uiswhlpt2614019 lighttpd]# diff lighttpd.conf.orig lighttpd.conf
10c10
< $HTTP["remoteip"] !~ "10.0.10.173|127.0.0.1" {

---
> $HTTP["remoteip"] !~ "10.0.2.2|10.0.10.173|127.0.0.1" {
[root@uiswhlpt2614019 lighttpd]# 
[root@uiswhlpt2614019 lighttpd]# /etc/init.d/lighttpd restart

This is a symptom of insufficient documentation for how to use the ansible role (and potentially with how I'm handling ansible template variables within vagrant).

Installation docs should cover this now.

Where is this mentioned in the docs?
