Hi,
I am trying to setup galaxy on a UNIX server rather than on a local computer in order to have high storage/CPU. I am able to install Galaxy on the server, but do not want to run it from the command line (the server exists only as a command line) - instead, I would like to be able to access the graphical version. When we run galaxy (sh command), we are told that we can access Galaxy at 127.0.0.1:8080. We have been successful in doing this on our local version, but as there is no browser on the server, we cannot access a graphical version.
Bottom line: is it possible to make the graphical Galaxy accessible by other computers over the network (not a local connection), while running it on the server in the background?
Thank you!

Change localhost (127.0.0.1) in the server configuration to the current local network ip of the server and restart galaxy.
Assuming the server firewall allows it, local network workstations should be able to access the server. The default setup is ONLY for testing and evaluation! For production use which usually requires a cluster, you need to take additional steps...
