Lijuan: If your venue server hostname resolves properly for the other machines, they should be able to access your venue server. If the venue server is behind a firewall, you'll need to open ports for the venue server. There are four ports which are, by default, 8000, 8002, 8004, 8006; you can configure them to be different with command-line options and the VenueServer.cfg file.
How does it fail when machines on other networks try to connect to your venue server?
