I'm sure this is a fairly common issue, but I can't figure it out. I have Madsonic working well on my local machine. I can access it through localhost:4040 with no issues. However, I can't get to it from any other computer on my network. Here are the details:
--Revision: Cannot connect with either 5.0.3820 or 5.0.3800
--Settings->Network->Madsonic URL: 192.168.0.45:4040. I can ping 192.168.0.45 from other machines on my network.
--Madsonic Control Panel->Server Address: localhost:4040. I'm not sure if the 'localhost' info is a problem or not. I feel like it should be showing my computer's static IP address.
--Madsonic Control Panel->Context Path: /. I've tried other context paths and they don't seem to make any difference
--Installation Package: Windows 64 bit package
--Operating System: Windows 7 SP1 64-bit
I'm at a loss as to what to look at next. I've spent hours tinkering with settings, but I haven't found the correct configuration yet. Any ideas?

Re: Cannot access remotely (inside or outside LAN)
Make an exception in the Windows firewall on your server. That does the trick!

Got it. Thanks very much! I upgraded to Win7 recently and don't have much experience with the firewall. We're cooking dinner and my daughter just thanked me for the good music I was playing.
