I already installed XAMPP and also a PHPBB3 forum on it but.. how can my friends visit it?
It's on localhost - so only those from the local network can see it but when I give them the link they say they can't see anything!
What's wrong then??
I can visit my forum and it's working properly but..it will be useless if they can't visit it!
Should they stop their skypes before trying to enter or what?
And is there a way to change the port that xampp is useing? I mean... what's the point if all of them must stop skype??
please help me!
Check out my article on Port Forwarding.
http://www.myownserver.info/index.php/step-4-additonal-settings/8-port-forwarding.htmlIf you're not using a router, then scroll down to how to open ports in Windows firewall, assuming you aren't using another firewall of some sort.
That should fix it for you. Please post back and let us know.
