Hi all.

I'm having a problem with XAMPP.
I want to use it as a webserver, so the 'outside world' can visit
my homepage. I've installed XAMPP and I opened port 80 of my
router (I've no firewall running)
From my other pc (who's connected with the same router on the www)
I can visit all of my pages by simply typing my IP (followed bij the page)

That looks ok, but... others can't visit my homepage
They all bump into a 403 error page.

I guess I must change things in my httpd.conf... but what?¿
Please can somebody give me a (virtual) hand?

Greetz, Bizz

You must make a port-mapping in your router. Sometimes called "virtual server". Look in your router manual.

Thanks for your quick reply.
Besser noch... viele, viele und viele dank...

You've pointed me to the right direction.
I've found (and solved) the problem.

Stupid me. Forgot to flash the new settings

It works perfect now.

Thanks again!!
