To allow non local access, modify


/usr/local/etc/couchdb/default.ini

so that

bind_address = 0.0.0.0

    I'm trying out CouchApp on an experimental internal facing system so the security issues aren't really a problem. Though, I'm interested in how CouchApp is intended to be used in the wild -- I'll investigate that once, I've got stuff working internally.
