I'm sure I'm just missing something, but HELP!!!

I've followed all the instructions for FM 6.0v4 to publish db to the web....but nobody can access it using the IP address I've provided.

Can someone giving a newbie some simple options as to what the problem might be?

Thanks

So what instructions have you followed?

With FileMaker Pro, you can publish your database on the World Wide Web (or an intranet) using FileMaker Pro Web Companion. You don't need any additional software--anyone with web browser software and access to the Internet or an intranet can view, edit, sort, or search your database, if you give them access privileges.

You can publish a database on the Web to:

• make your data available to many people, using almost any kind of computer, anywhere in the world. (You can, however, restrict access to the file.)

• access your data from many locations, for example, while traveling or working at home.
