Posted: 14. March 2011 18:21
Hi, I installed xampp on by brothers computer so I can test php scripts there,
if I type http://localhost/index.html on his PC it works and shows the page.
I can access the files on his computer over the LAN, I see his PC
in Network Connections and can insert files to the xampp folder,
but if I type http://localhost/index.html on my PC it doesn't work,
we both have the same IP since it's a LAN, he has windows 7
and I have windows XP, I am on workgroup MSHOME and he is
on workgroup WORKGROUP, are any of there related?
how can I connect to his server from my PC?
