Network Browsing

[coldfused]

We installed WAMP on a machine that is connected to the network and would like to browse to the root folder for testing php websites. On the machine itself I can browse localhost no problem and everything is ok. On the network I can not browse to

http://webfileserver

or

http://webfileserver:80

(webfilserver being the name of the machine). I get an Apache error:

You don't have permission to access / on this server.

Apache/2.0.59 (Win32) PHP/5.1.6 Server at webfileserver Port 80

Now the thing is we also have Coldfusion running on that same machine and can connect to

http://webfileserver:8500

for testing CFML apps no problem.

Something to do with Apache and permissions I'm guessing but have no idea.

Any help is appreciated.

What does the Virtual Host directives look like for webfileserver?

Not sure about Apache on Windows but you want to look for your httpd.conf or httpd-vhost.conf.

No I know where the conf file is but where inside and what exactly am I looking for and what am I changing?

Take a look at my posting above yours. I use EASYPHP but the apache conf file should be setup primarily the same. However, I use a dynamic IP Address which changes routinely. M.Brooks posted an entire conf properly configured.
