Enable remote access neo4j 4.2 community edition

Due to working from home, I need a way to monitor a remote neo4j instance - preferably through a web browser instance.

In the past (eg in 3.0) it could be easily achieved by modifying a single config line.

Unfortunately, with the version 4.2 this is no more the case - the line is not there anymore and attempts to coax the new connectors configs to work in the same way, aka changing:

# HTTP Connector. There can be zero or one HTTP connectors.
dbms.connector.http.enabled=true
#dbms.connector.http.listen_address=:7474
#dbms.connector.http.advertised_address=:7474

# HTTPS Connector. There can be zero or one HTTPS connectors.
dbms.connector.https.enabled=false
#dbms.connector.https.listen_address=:7473
#dbms.connector.https.advertised_address=:7473

to

# HTTP Connector. There can be zero or one HTTP connectors.
dbms.connector.http.enabled=true
dbms.connector.http.listen_address=0.0.0.0:7474
#dbms.connector.http.advertised_address=:7474

# HTTPS Connector. There can be zero or one HTTPS connectors.
dbms.connector.https.enabled=true
dbms.connector.https.listen_address=0.0.0.0:7473
dbms.connector.https.advertised_address=0.0.0.0:7473

did not succeed - the :7474 and :7473 remained inaccessible.

Try to uncomment the following configuration:

# With default configuration Neo4j only accepts local connections.
# To accept non-local connections, uncomment this line:
#dbms.default_listen_address=0.0.0.0
