Xampp works fine from the localhost but . . .

Xampp 5.6 installed and works fine from the 'localhost' or server IP address but can't connect from other devices on my LAN. (I'm only wanting to serve to an Intranet). Machines attempting to connect using IP time-out.
WHILE COMPOSING THIS QUESTION I FOUND THE ANSWER MYSELF! Looked at the Firewall Settings. Set 'Allow Incoming'. :D

That would have been my very first suggestion...

No gain without pain! I'm more likely to remember this having suffered for a time.
