Ok, so I tried to make a server for me and my friends. I watched the tutorial on how to make one, and I did it. I got on my minecraft server perfectly fine. I put my local ip address where it say "Server-IP" in the server properties. I went to www.whatsmyip.com, like the tutorial said and I gave it to my friend, but he couldn't get on. Was I suppost to put my ip address somewhere? Or is there something my friend has to do? I am dieing to play on a private server right now. :/
You forgot to port forward. Hope you can find a tutorial, and if you can't do it, use Hamachi.
Oh, and this is the wrong forum to post in. Post in Server Administration.
Go to your command prompt, and type in NETSTAT, wait a lil bit and it'll come up with all available ports for your IP adress. Only do the ones with the AVAILABLE sign.

I can't port forward because I don't know the username and psword to my router. And I tried making a hamachi server, but my fiend couldn't log into my network for some reason, idk why. And sorry I didn't know what forum to post this in.
