1. Forward the port you're using. Google "port forwarding".
2. To make it appear in the server list, check the "public" checkbox.

yes, but it doesn't read it from there. it didn't even exist there in the first place. all that was there was the world.

~minetest/minetest.conf.example => copy minetest.conf.example to minetest.conf => edit minetest.conf => start your server

For appear in public_server_list, copy the lines at the bottom of this page : http://www.minetest.net/servers

And, don't forgot to forward the port...
