Exposing built in server to outside machine

I would like to use moinmoin's built in server (running on ubuntu) to serve pages to other machines on my LAN. With the --interface flag, I can connect to the from the host machine by pointing my browser to 192.168.72.131:8080, but the server does not respond to queries from outside.

I found this, but none of the steps seem to work.

iptables seems like a good bet, but I don't even know where to start; e.g. do I put it in the PREROUTING table, what flags do I use?

How can I enable other machines on my network to access the server?

From the moin perspective, it is usually enough to have the web server listen on the correct interface (maybe also try 0.0.0.0 for "all interfaces").
