Is it possible to change the Xampp default IP address?
I would like to run Xampp in my intranet that has IP address 10.0.0.
Is it possible to make XAmpp use the address 10.0.0.200
If not, how can i do what i want?

I'm sorry, i don't understand.
All i know is that xampp works fine on the pc it is installed but i can't access it from other pc on my network.
How can i access the server from any pc on my network?

Eureka! but...

Well, I' m slow but got it.
Now I can access xampp using the ip that the pc with xampp has: let's say 10.0.0.9
The question is, can i transform this ip in a name?

If you're wanting to do this outside of your local internet. You would need to purchase a domain. And then set up a DNS server that would redirect to your ip address every time someone went to that address.

If you want to do this on just your local network. If you're on a winxp or win2000 computer you can do this just by using your computer name like this. //yourcomputername/

problem solve
