get webpage cannot be displayed but the address seem to be working fine
for all my LAN computers.. im running NIS as my firewall... any ideas

permission for apache.exe to accept connections from outside but it

Default Re: access problems

First how are you connected to the internet ?
Cable/DSL modem--router------your PC
|
------ Other PC's
if thats the case then you need to do a port forwarding in your
cable/DSL modem. If you are running your server on port 80 then make
sure you forward 80 to the IP of your computer. Once that is done go to
www.ipchicken.com. The Ip number you see on this site will be the one
used to access your server from WAN.
