Hi Folks, Ok at least some progress. I can get rocket to work with 0.0.0.8000 on my computer, and then open the app with http://myip/app/etc etc But if I try to open that app now by accessing my computer via the IP then the page is blocked I guess by the network firewall.' Cos we dont have admin control of our computers we cant turn off or modify the firewall (yet). Any ideas what to do to access from behind firewalls? thanks
