You can add your own host to that configuration so you can open it with your browser.

To do so, add your host (that is your public WAN IP, e.g. you can google it) into the config.php file. It's the array of hostnames on top, see the 'my very own ip' example entry:

if (!in_array(@$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], array(
    '127.0.0.1',
    '::1',
    'my very own ip',
))) {
    header('HTTP/1.0 403 Forbidden');
    die('This script is only accessible from localhost.');
}

You should then be able to access the script on your server.
