    HarryS,

     

    When Collaborator is initially installed, it uses the local loopback address of the machine it was installed on. To resolve your issue, you need to specify an "External URL:" for the server. This is done in the Admin > System > Settings  form. You can use the network accessible IP address of the Collaborator server, or a qualified DNS mapping if you have that setup. 

    Ensure to also use the port setting with your IP address.
