You will need to configure Apache to listen to the IP address on that specific machine behind your router; which is most likely a private address. i.e. 192.168.x.x or 10.10.x.x
Then, in your router, go to "port forwarding" and tell it to forward all incoming request for port 80, to the private IP address your Apache server is running on. --- Josh Sephton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > I'm trying to configure Apache to respond for > requests to the external > address of my LAN. > > Currently I have a Belkin wireless router into which > my internet comes in > through.
