Hi,
it seems like a firewall issue.
you'll have to check that ... maybe you're behind a router or a firewall. Then the way you open ports will depend on your software/hardware.

Thank you. It turned out that it was that second config file I wasn't aware of. I had to CD to "/" to see it because my default directory location when I was using SSH was "root". Now I have another problem I am not getting a connection. It seems the port is closed because when I try to telnet to mydomain.com 2468 it cannot connect. Is there a way to manually open a port using terminal?

Just make sure you are editing the right palabre.conf file
If you installed it it will look for /etc/palabre.conf (global /etc folder) otherwise it will use the palabre.conf file located in the "etc" subdirectory of palabre.
If unsure ... edit both :)

Hi
You should find a line like this :
ip = 127.0.0.1
you can replace it by either :
ip =
OR
ip = YOUR.IP.ADD.RESS
OR
# ip = 127.0.0.1

I had already attempted to change that config file, but it was still running on a logal interface. I guess I don't know what section of the config file I need to address?

Hi,
For security, by default Palabre is not running on other interfaces than localhost.
To enable it just edit the palabre.conf file (/etc/palabre.conf)
