Feature Request: Configurable Host/IP Resolution for Remote and Local Simulator Access #109

@tyronechrisharris

Description

@tyronechrisharris

Currently, the system requires the simulator endpoint to be specified as a hostname (e.g., nsddset.com). This works locally when the hostname resolves to 192.168.50.225:8282, but fails when accessed remotely due to Cloudflare/webserver configuration. As a result, simulated RPMs are visible locally, but not when accessed over the web.

Problem:

  • Locally, I can reach the simulator at 192.168.50.225 via a laptop on the same network.
  • I can remotely access nsddset.com successfully remotely.

  • However, the buildnode configuration currently requires the hostname nsddset.com rather than directly allowing 192.168.50.225.
  • Attempts to edit the IP address directly result in errors.
  • It appears Cloudflare is interfering with hostname resolution (see [nslookup results](https://www.nslookup.io/domains/nsddset.com/webservers/)).
  • The issue maybe that for remote/public internet viewing, a different configuration is needed.

Proposed Solution:
Add support for configurable host resolution, including:

  • Remote mode (hostname via Cloudflare or public DNS)
