I am guessing that this is the
simplest problem there is but it has me stumped. I installed Apache and PHP and
ran the localhost tests and all is well. I have a static IP and I am behind a US
Robotics router in which I forwarded port 80 to this PC. I sent my IP
(68.82.124.204) to my sister and asked her to test the server. She put http://68.82.124.204 in her browser and got the
"page not found" message. So she tried http://68.82.124.204:80 and got the same
results. From what I understand I cannot access my own server via my own IP so
that leaves 2 questions.
1. What does someone have to enter
in a browser to access my server?
2. How can I test the connection
short of using someone else's internet connection?
I googled the hell out of this
problem and came up empty. Forgive me if this has already been asked a bazillion
times.
