Omnis Runtime End-User Deployment

[Andrew Stolarz]

Martin,

If you are on a mac, you can open Terminal and type in: ipconfig getifaddr
en0

If on a PC, open Command Prompt and type in: ipconfig

This will give you the machine's IP on the local network.

You need to define your port in Omnis (as stated in the docs),
typically its 5912.
