I am installing an apache http server on my pc, but i am over a network. I use the internet through another pc. How do i configure either pc so my server will work?
I am running Windows XP Pro and Windows 98 SE on the internet pc.
The first logical step would be to see if your ISP has any mechanisms in place that block incoming requests on port 80. I worked for an ISP that did this, and it is not an unusual request from a customer.
Second, you'll need to set up forwarding for port 80 in ICS. This is not an Apache question, per se, but Google should provide some links on how to do this.
Forget the ICS,
To do the port mapping download this, cb_PMM - Port Mapping and Monitoring
It's free and you can set
From IP 0.0.0.0(which means from all) Port 80 -> Map IP ip.of.apache.sever Port 80
