The "listen 80" is in the main config file.The only thing that works is 10.0.0.115. I was reading your comment about DHCP and LAN. My router is set as DHCP server. I can't get what the LAN settings should be. Are familiar with the Linksys Router. If you are, then would any settings in the advanced routing tab do anything for me here? If it does then I'll attach a copy of the routing tables that are in the router for you to look at.
If your router supports it (what router do you have?) there should be a place where you can tell the router to assign a user selected ip to the same machine every time. Every machine on your network has a different (unique) MAC (Media Access Control) address. This address doesn't change unless you manually change it. Show us your full 'hosts' file and the LAN specific info from your router.
In my Netgear router it's called 'Address Reservation' under Advanced->LAN IP Setup. It is a list of ip addresses that gets assigned to the various machines on my network, looks like:
IP address Device Name MAC Address 192.168.1.5 LINUX-SERVER ??:??:??:??:??:?? 192.168.1.4 gfriend-desktop ??:??:??:??:??:?? 192.168.1.2 dell2350-desktop ??:??:??:??:??:??192.168.1.3 amd64x2 0A:1B:2C:3D:4E:5F (example - numbers/letters made up)
...of course you would see numbers/letters instead of ??. My server is 192.168.1.3 and that address gets assigned to the computer that reports itself as MAC 0A:1B:2C:3D:4E:5F. This info is setup right along with 'Use router as DHCP server?' but that is for my netgear. Now if you have this and then tell your router to port forward all HTTP traffic to 192.168.1.3 port 80 (substitute your info) you should have a setup that survives reboots.

You should have: Listen 80 in the main config. and it should answer if you type any of: 127.0.0.1 10.0.0.115 (current machine ip as assigned by the router) localhost ...into your browser as long as your hosts file has: 127.0.0.1 localhost 10.0.0.115 localhost 127.0.0.1 is always set as the local machine (loopback) 10.0.0.115 is assigned by your router and doesn't need to be set in the hosts file unless you configure the router to assign that ip to that machine all the time. You have been making a lot of changes lately. You might want to see if there is a computer group in your area. If so, there is bound to be someone that can help you. Believe it or not, once this is set up properly and you can see how it works it's not hard to understand. > > My DSL modem that connects me to the internet has the static IP > > address of "66.113.46.108 michaelsrogers.com".
