By default, NodeBB listens on all network interfaces (0.0.0.0
), so if you set up an ad-hoc network, anybody connected to your machine will be able to access it via MACHINE_IP:4567
.
If you have your machine behind a NAT/Router, you'll have to forward port 4567 to your machine. Alternatively, you could translate requests from external port 80 to port 4567, though that is untested for NodeBB specifically.
