For testing purposes I need to access my running WO application (in development mode, started from Xcode) from another machine (Windows PC) inside our LAN. But I can't use the URL I have on my local browser (which is something like "http://localhost:54342/cgi-bin/ WebObjects/SkillPortal.woa"). Of course I replaced localhost with the IP address.

Is there a way to do it? The firewall on my Mac is on, but Personal Web Sharing is enabled as well.

... look at the url: you are using a custom port: 54342, this is not the port from HTTP which is (usually) 80. So even if personal web sharing is OK for your firewall the firewall will block access to port 54342 unless you open this port. I suggest using -WOPort=54342 for the application as additional argument and then open this port in the firewall. Using this WOPort tells the app to always use this port (unless you change the argument...).
