[erlang-questions] Erlang connect by external ip address

[Adrian Roe]

Again a little while since I’ve been here, but I suspect you need to explicitly listen on all IP addresses adding {ip, “0.0.0.0”} to your options.  That and make certain that you don’t have a firewall / routing issue blocking traffic to your public IP on your port.

Not 100% sure, but I think inet or inet6 should be part of your
gen_tcp:listen/2 option list.
