**This is not the multi-user server you are looking for**. This document describes how you can run a public server with a single user. This should only be done by someone who wants remote access to their personal machine. Even so, doing this requires a thorough understanding of the set-ups limitations and security implications. If you allow multiple users to access a notebook server as it is described in this document, their commands may collide, clobber and overwrite each other.
If you want a multi-user server, the official solution is JupyterHub_. To use JupyterHub, you need a Unix server (typically Linux) running somewhere that is accessible to your users on a network. This may run over the public internet, but doing so introduces additional of `security concerns <https://jupyterhub.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting-started.html#security>`_.
