 This chapter:

 http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/intro/tutorial01/#the-development-
 server

 .. should be complemented on how to allow access from other IPs than
 localhost (127.0.0.1).

 As mentioned here:

 http://forums.site5.com/showthread.php?p=139864

 .. the python-webserver can be started with to allow access from non-
 localhost IPs:

 python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000

 Restriction to localhost makes sense from a security aspect, but prohibits
 access in virtual machine environments (like running python/django on a
 linux server that is hosted on Windows XP or OS/X via VMware).

 This took me some time to figure out - a hint on 0.0.0.0:xxxx should help
 others to avoid the hassle.
