Okay, someone gave me a used Dell Powertouch 4200 Server, which I installed to a normal DSL Modem. Connected via Cross-over cable is the computer I’m on right now.
I have XPPro on both computers, with a shared internet connection. That works fine.
However: One the Server, I have Apache HTTP Server, PHP, and mySQL, and am hosting 2 web-sites off of it. Again - working fine EXCEPT, that I cannot connect to the web-sites from this computer, nor can I access the mySQL server from this computer… I have no idea what’s going on…
I can put files on the server, by either FTP or windows File Sharing, and Network Drives, but If I pull up Firefox, and type in http://seifertim.no-ip.com it times out, whereas, from the Server, or any other computer, it works fine…
Any ideas?
Forward Ports?
Check the virttual hosts?
Those are always things to look at when hosting multiple sites. Oh and I would just go buy a 4 Port dumby switch for your computer and stuff, and or router. Would make future additions easier and less painless.
Virtual hosts are all in place and work fine… but I can’t get this comp to connect to the other via IP… or domain name…
You need to forward port 80 (outside port 80, inside port 80/whatever is configured in Apache).
Well, I figured it out… all I had to do was set FireFox to use 192.168.0.1 (my server’s internal IP) as a proxy server 
Thanks :beam:
