Hi all,
I have found a heap of forum posts discussing how to access one computers local XAMPP VHOSTS from another PC or iPad but they all seem to presume a better understanding of the systems than I posses. I was hoping someone might be able to take the time to walk me through the process of setting up such a setup in plain english presuming I'm an idiot with no networking experience?
Basically, for the sake of simplifying it, I have the used the following details so I can simply replace with the corresponding IP addresses...
Primary install:
Windows 7 with XAMPP (VHOSTS setup). On this system I have 2 VHOSTs, 1./ www.dev.testsite 2./ www.dev.testsitebeta
The IP address of this system for example is AAA.AAA.AA.AAA
Secondary system A:
MAC OSX... From this system I'd like to be able to access 1./ www.dev.testsite 2./ www.dev.testsitebeta from the 'Primary Install'
The IP address of this system for example is CCC.CCC.CC.CCC
Secondary system B:
iPAD... From this I'd like to be able to access 1./ www.dev.testsite 2./ www.dev.testsitebeta from the 'Primary Install'
The IP address of this system for example is DDD.DDD.DD.DDD
I know it's a lot to ask but I simply can't follow the endless chain of forum topics on the mater, I get lost and screw up my installations... Any help would be greatly appreciated and I'd even be happy to make a PayPal donation if it helps.
Yours sincerely,
Richard (mobius2000).
