Now, if I had a spare old computer, and a fixed internet address, people could use that to write and run Eu programs without downloading anything at all (hint).
They could also use it to trash the crap out of your network without the proper security measures in place. Does Broadway offer anything in the way of user authentication? If not, you could probably put nginx in front of the Broadway server. This would have the added benefit of allowing you to listen publicly on port 80 (HTTP) or 443 (HTTPS) and then redirect to 8080 if and only if the user is authenticated.

Obviously, password protection wouldn't be enough. I seldom deal with network security issues. There's probably a better way.
