Accessing web pages over a network

I have installed XAMPP on my main Linux box and I need to be able to access the web pages from my Windows box over the network.

I have tried using http://192.68.0.1:80 in the browser without success. What should I use?

Well, you need use the IP adress of your linux box.
It is 192.68.0.1 ?

The Linux box IP is actually 192.168.0.1 (mistyped above).
Tried this both with and without the http:// and doesn't work.

The network functions OK but the directories have to be made shared to be visible. Do I need to make /opt/lampp/htdocs a shared directory ?
