Accessing the node.js server from a remote system

[Bhushan N.N]

I have a node server running on port 3000 on a Windows XP system.

I am unable to access the server from any other computer within the same network.

Tried using the IP address:3000 and CMPUTERNAME:3000

I have added port 3000 to the windows firewall exceptions.

Can someone please help me out? I am supposed to be giving a demo today but unable to get this working.

Thanks for the help

Are you listening on the right ip address? Listening on 127.0.0.1 would make it available only on the loopbak interface, ie the same machine.

server.listen(app.get('port'), 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx', function(){
  console.log("Express server listening on port " + app.get('port'));
});

for presentation you can remove the host-parameter. it will by default listen on all interfaces then
