[pkg-lighttpd] Bug#380267: lighttpd default config file - server binds to localhost only

Package: lighttpd
Version: 1.4.11-7

The default config file that comes with this package causes the server to
bind only to the localhost interface.  This is not the most desirable
default, as nobody outside of the local machine will have access to the http
server.  IMO the line in the config file should be commented out, as it is
in the config file that is provided by the original authors.

The line in question is:

## bind to localhost only (default: all interfaces)
server.bind                = "localhost"

This line should be commented out.
