For the first error:

Open Notepad, and copy and paste this in:

@echo off
java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar minecraft_server.jar
pause

Save it as run.bat in your server directory and use it to start up your server.

For the second error:

Make sure that TCP port 25565 (assuming that you haven't changed the port that the Minecraft Server uses) is properly port forwarded on your router, and make sure that no other servers are using that port on your computer.

If you don't know how to port forward, use this guide: http://portforward.com/english/applications/port_forwarding/Minecraft_Server/Minecraft_Serverindex.htm .

Select your router, and it'll tell you step by step how to port forward the Minecraft Server.

Edit: Also, upgrade your server to version 1.0.1.

Remove the IP from ther server.properties.

You do not need it in there and you, obviously, no offence meant, have no idea why it goes in there.
