 Sophie Server doesn't have an interface like other applications, so the only thing you can do within the application is quit it. But when it's running, it can be used from both the web and inside of Sophie Author and Sophie Reader. Sophie Server is designed for educational institutions and publishing houses; it's designed to be run on a computer that's connected to the web which will keep Sophie Server running at all time so that users can log into it (just like a web server works). That doesn't mean that you can't run it, of course: anyone who wants to is free to run their own Sophie Server.
 
-To test out Sophie Server on another computer, you'll need to know your IP address. You can figure out what your IP address in several ways; one of them is to go to a website like [http://www.whatismyip.com/] on the computer that's running Sophie Server. You can use this IP address to get to Sophie Server on another computer.

You can use this IP address to get to Sophie Server on another computer. But you don't need another computer to test out Sophie Server: you can use Sophie Server and Sophie Author or Sophie Reader on the same computer. For the rest of this walk-through, we'll assume that you're using Sophie Server on the same computer on which you're using Sophie Author or Sophie Reader.
