GnuMP3D only works on local internet


I'm running a Xubuntu 8.10 server and I just started using GnuMP3D for my
music server.
Amazingly, it seems to work flawlessly right off the bat. However, this only
works on my local network. My main site works from anywhere, and 
http://euroburchills.no-ip.org:8888 http://euroburchills.no-ip.org:8888 
works too, but only from computers on my network.

Like if I view it from the browser on my server, I'd see everything. It also
works on any computer connected to the same router. However, no one else can
load the page. 
I believe that I changed the config file so that it should be visible to
everyone, but nothing seems to work.
Maybe I screwed the file up. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this?
Could I possibly borrow the config file (removed of all personal information
of course) from someone who got their site to work on the world wide
internet?

Maybe port 8888 is blocked at your external firewall?

Second that.  It looks to me like port 8888 is being blocked.  Did you try 
making sure that appropriate Iptables rules are set up?  Something like `-i 
eth0 -p tcp --dport 8888 -j ACCEPT`.  It looks like you have 'DROP' as the 
default policy in your firewall rules.

Re: GnuMP3D only works on local internet


You mean being blocked by the router?  I don't think I'm using any firewall,
at least any firewall that didn't come pre-installed. 
 I'm using the same port-forwarding technique (in the router setup) that I
use for Port 80 for my site, so why would 80 work, but not 8888? I COULD
just change the port from 8888 to something else, if it would make it
easier...
For example, I've done SSHing without having to change stuff like this (but
not on port 8888, of course).

Sorry for being so inept at using iptables... So far I've managed to avoid
every using them. 

I tried 
"iptables -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 8888 -j ACCEPT"
and got: 
"iptables v1.3.8: no command specified
Try `iptables -h' or 'iptables --help' for more information."

Do you know what the correct command should be?  And possibly any succinct
iptable guides for newbies?
