Notebook server is not visible from outside Amazon EC2 machine

[o-mdr]

I've started EC2 machine with BIDMach preinstalled on it, as described in http://bid2.berkeley.edu/bid-data-project/download/

After starting the machine and opening up firewall for the notebook server, I started the server with

bidmach notebook

But the server didn't bind to all the network interfaces and was only visible from its own IP address.

This is almost surely an Ipython issue. Did you try opening a regular ipython notebook?
To use an ipython notebook remotely you need to either:

• Use an X11 server on your local machine and enable X tunneling with ssh -X or ssh -Y
• Create tunnels for the typical ipython ports on 8888 etc. with ssh -L 8888:localhost:8888 and then connect to localhost:8888 from your local browser
