Make sure he has the library files, update the config with your ip and the port you forwarded, then send that to him with the same details. Remember to run the server.

1\. Make sure he has the library files, as stated above.

2\. If you're using no-ip, make sure you use your External IP address, not your internal.
Your External IP address can be discovered by going to ipchicken.com . Use the IP that it says there.

3\. Make sure you've portforwarded #4000 TCP/UDP on your router.

4\. Make sure you have the port OPEN on your firewall.
