setting up tomcat for external access

Hi;

I want my friend to reach my site which is under my tomcat and I don't have a static IP for the need. The machine that I host my application is reachable via localhost and the machine is connected to a tethered iphone which can grab an IP.

However, after grabbing that IP, it is not possible to reach the site. No firewalls are running on any of the machines. The machines are Windows 7.

What to do?
I modified my server.xml and add the 0.0.0.0 but not working..

<Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1" 
           maxHttpHeaderSize="65536" 
           connectionTimeout="20000" 
           redirectPort="8443"
           address="0.0.0.0" />

Open in new window


The alternative question might be how can I do port forwarding in a tethered iphone?
