Configuring Security

Hi everyone,

I installed xampp on a Windows 2003 Server that already had IIS running and being used. So I had to add an IP address (192.168.0.129) to use just for the Apache site I needed. My problem is that I can't get to the security page to enable better security settings since 'localhost' doesn't bring up the Apache page. When I try to go to /localhost/security/xamppsecurity.php I get a page that says "forbidden for client 192.168.0.129".

Is there an easy way to get at the security settings in this setup?


Thanks for the help,

Kevin

How did you do that exactly?

In \xampp\security\htdocs\xamppsecurity.php you can change line 5 to:
Code: Select all
   $host = "192.168.0.129";

I used the information from this post...

That worked great!

Thanks very much,
