I have installed Apache in XP and would like to access it from a remote computer. On my wireless local network using Linksys I can access apache with IE and the IP address so I think Apache is working correctly. Bellsouth gave me a static ip but, using it does not resolve to my Apache server. I have turned off the XP firewall and removed the Linksys router as part of my trouble shooting effort. I am using the Apached default port 80. What else can I do to troubleshoot this?

Hi there,

What about DNS? Have you done with DNS configuration?
