Yep, the 212 IP belongs to the server where I have Nginx and TiddlyWiki installed, so that's why I set the same IP in the host parameter. The server is headless, so with this configuration I can access the web page from any other computer on the same network. As for the "try_files $uri $uri/ @proxy =404;" line, I think I picked this up from one of the various pages I used to research the configuration. According to the default nginx file the, concerning "try_files" line: First attempt to serve request as file, then as directory, then fall back to displaying a 404. @proxy was a later addition.

The thing is that the docs say that the "host" parameter is "... > *host* is the IP address on which the server listens" and " *n.n.n.n* - > listens for connections on the network interface with the specified IP > address".
