Re: Making my website accessible from another computer?

[Mike Starr <starrtennis@xxxxxxxxx>]

Okay, so far my progress is that I have found my router's IP address and accessed it. Now I have to find the login info and enable port-forwarding to access through port 8080 (where Apache is listening) on my PC.

Hi, I tried adding 

Order Allow,Deny

Allow from all

to my httpd.conf file but that broke Apache. I would like to host my website from my computer (YES I realize it will only be accessible while apache is running and the computer is on, and yes I realize there are security issues--but I just want to do it temporarily to see if it can be done! for fun!) so e.g. my family and friends with links only can access it through my static I.P. address.

How would one go about doing this?

Please don't just respond with a list of references to web hosting services. I'm interested in the solution to this local hosting challenge ONLY.

Many thanks,
