Difficult to say without seeing more of your project but this may have already been answered here .

There is no configuration needed to make your external IP address work with node.js, unless and until you bind it otherwise.

Instead of .listen(PORT, IP_ADDRESS_OR_HOST ); use .listen(PORT);

Then, just use IP_ADDRESS_OR_HOST:PORT to access it.

Edit: It occurred to me that you may not be aware of how the basics of websites work (not trying to insult you here, I just don't know how much work you've done already). Once you have exposed your application to respond on any IP, you need to forward port 80 from your gateway/router/firewall to the internal IP address of your VM running Node.
