Hi,

Yes, you do need to make a hole in your firewall if you want to access it from outside, which could be non-trivial and depends on your router / firewall...

Michael:  I checked those numbers and the one on the Blackberry did have
a dot before the 8513 and the one on the Mnemosyne server had a colon
before the 8513.  Significant?

Also, I have two other thoughts on this problem.  When I was trying to
check that number on the Mnemosyne Server screen it kept disappearing.
  Could it be that my router is shutting it down to protect my system
because there is no security?  Do I need to make a hole in my fire wall
for this Mnemosyne Server?

Is it only a threat to security when it is open and running?

Also, on the Blackberry end.... could it be that the numbers that the
Server gives me and says it is listening at.... should I be looking for
those in a different place?  Not at the Browser.

   Ok, to explain this better... when we want to connect the Blackberry
Playbook to the net... say at McDonalds,... we have to put in numbers
that connect to their server.  My blackberry is automatically connecting
to our own server's network and connecting to the outside cyberspace.
  Am I instead trying to come in to my server on the numbers it gives
me?  And should I look for them there at that 'connect to server' spot
on the Playbook?  You can tell that I'm not the one that does that part
of it.

Did I really muddle that up?  Can you help me?

    Be very careful with the address.   You said ... :8513, but then
    later used "... .8513".  Notice the difference between the colon ":"
    and the dot "." in the second example.

        "Other option is running Mnemosyne's web server on your desktop
        machine,
        and then doing the reviews in your browser on your Playbook, but
        that
        requires network access, obviously.

        Peter "

        Getting message on Playbook browser:  "Can't find file
        xxx.xxx.1.65:8513 which is the  number which  the Mnemosyne's
        server gave me in the DOS window: "...listening on
        http://xxx.xxx.1.65:8513";  My husband thought the first six
        numbers were the number of our server.

        Particulars:  Network is through the router the service provider
        set up (do you need it's name and particulars?)  working on XP.
          Mnemosyne 2.2.  Blackberry Playbook OS version 2.1.0.1314
        (latest it says).  Playbook IPV4 XXX.XXX.1.67 what ever that means.

        Opened Mnemosyne server in the Mnemosyne program file.  Got the
        DOS screen with the message:  "server listening on
        http://xxx.xxx.1.65:8513"; next line down had a winking cursor.

        Mnemosyne program:  tried it  both ways:  the program not open
        and open with cards up ready to be reviewed.
        On the Blackberry Tablet.  Opened browser and typed in the
        Google search line the http://xxx.xxx.1.65.8513.  Google
        responded with "your search did not match any documents."

        Searched through the Tablet looking for anything that would
        identify the tablet thinking maybe the blinking cursor wanted a
        number identifying the Tablet.  I found a Tablet number called a
        1PV4 which was xxx.xxx.1.67.  That looked like the same first
        numbers that Menosyne server was waiting on.  Tried to type them
        in at the Mnenosyne server curser on the DOS screen but it
        wouldn't let me.
        Also, when I first opened the DOS screen through the Server, it
        didn't want to stay up even long enough for me to read its
        message.  I kept hitting it and finally it stayed up with the
        blinking curser.  When I tried again starting over.... it
        wouldn't stay up long enough to read the message.  That might
        have been when I also had Mnemosyne program up with the cards
        selected.

        Question:  It seems to me that the Tablet is not looking in the
        correct spot for my http address.  It seems like it is out
        somewhere in cyberspace.

        Peter, I know you have worked so hard on this project and I love
        it.  Since you have also put in time and effort on the Server
        part, I wonder if you could help me with this .... or maybe I
        can be your tester  on my server and Blackberry Tablet combo.
          But, I do hope that I'm just not doing something right or
        misunderstanding.  I combed the internet and this site but there
        isn't very much specific information on this facet of Mnemosyne.

        P.S.:  I don't have any Python etc experience at all.  I guess
        I'm what might be called "an average female front-end-user".
