Visit neo4j invoked from console from a remote machine

Hello, I have unpacked the linux tar distribtion of neo4j. I have sucessfully invoked it via ./bin/neo4j console

I now have two ports that I can visit neo4j on, but they are both on localhost. and localhost is just a text-based linux box.

Attempting to visit port 7687 with the links text browser yields "not a Websocket handshake request: missing upgrade"

And i cannot visit port 7687 or port 7474 from a remote machine and get a response (even though I am able to visit web apps running on other ports just fine).
