Perhaps you should stop trying to let other people do the work for you and get on the internet to do some research into the problem yourself?

It is not even a java related question anyway, this is a configuration issue. So a forum that handles the specific topic of networking may be of more help.

Oops! Sorry

This looks like a Private IP address to me: 192.168.1.8. Pls see here for more info. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network

Unless your Gateway (router) is configured to map and relay private IPs, it may not be accessible from outside. Note- looking up by hostname may still be possible from external machine, in which case your DNS will return a public IP for the hostname.

Also ensure your firewall (if, any, e.g. Windows XP default) allows you to access port 5050 from external machine.
