Dear William and Jason, I got the network socket fixed by our support, went to http://www.whatismyip.com/ to find out my IP address, then followed William's instructions and typed:
sage: notebook(address="ipaddress",port=8100,secure=True) where ipaddress was replaced by the IP address of my computer. Then, I was able to connect to the running notebook from another computer on the network just by typing https://ipaddress:8100 (again with ipaddress replaced by the IP address of the computer running the notebook). When I try to connect to this notebook in the same way from a computer that is not on the same network, I get a network timeout, which reassures me that the notebook is not going to be a gateway for hackers around the world to create havoc on my computer. I will now play around with adding users etc. as described in William's post above. Too easy! Thanks for your help!
