If you are running Summary directly on the server then it is probably a
firewall blocking port 9000 issue.

In order for your Summary reports to be visible from the Internet, the
machine running Summary needs to have an externally visible IP address
and any firewall software and/or hardware that you are using needs to be
configured so that the port you are running Summary on, 9000 by default,
can get through.

Summary is accessible on all of the IP addresses owned by the machine
you are running it on, unless you have set "IP address to serve on
(blank is any)". Therefore any valid address or name for the machine,
combined with the port Summary is serving on, should work.

Good Luck

Dr. Seuss books . . . can be read and enjoyed on several levels. For
example, 'One Fish Two Fish, Red Fish Blue Fish' can be deconstructed
as a searing indictment of the narrow-minded binary counting system.
