Documentation is far from scarce on this site. Literally hundreds of posts pertaining to server and client connect problems. You just have to be patient enough to search, search again, and search some more. The Wiki article you used is good, but I think this one is newer:

Here's another one.

In fact, lots and lots of stuff appears when I go to the Wiki and search on Minilogin.
You can also attempt to setup a public server first, just to see if things are working ok, unless you cannot due to bandwidth limitations.
