Sir, if you want to access DSpace from window system then, you have to installed DSpace in Ubuntu and then access it from another computer. But the condition is that it should be connected to each other through LAN (local area network). Just open a browser and type in the URL portion, the IP address of the Ubuntu computer with its DSpace port number.

You can ask any computer expert for LAN set up details.
