Can't find Minimserver running on Windows

[rweten]

Simon, I'm trying to get a simple network set up as I'm away from home for a few months working overseas.

I'm trying to run Minimserver on my PC and then stream files to a wireless speaker attached to same PC.

Minimserver is running fine with full Green icon showing in the system tray. I have it running on a subnet 192.168.72.0 and my iphone etc is running on the same subnet.

My problem is that I cannot see the server in the control app I'm running on the iphone. I've tried a few things based on stuff I've read in the forum - such as turning the firewall on and off - but to no effect. However as I'm in a multi-user apartment, I don't have access to the router to play with IGMP Snooping or anything like that.

The one clue I have is that the ip address for the server doesn't look right. It's showing as 127.0.0.1 (found via My Computer, then clicking Properties on the Minimserver icon. I was surprised this wasn't showing as being on the 192.168.72.x subnet?

Any clue you can give me to help resolve the issue would be, as ever, gratefully received.

Thanks, Richard
