I have a project coded in php, and it works on a localhost/ style of scenario. The project, "BUSTED," is hosted on a little PC i have basically designated as a server, although at this point it runs XP with Xampp installed. Now when I"m on this "server" of sorts, the computer opens my project just fine under localhost/busted. but when i hooked the "server" up to a switch with 2 other dumb terminals (also simply running xp) the dummies ask for a login when i try to go to the server's address... and thats as far as it will go. I have subnetted all addresses, and the 3 pcs ping successfully. am i just a nubcake or did i totally overlook something stupid?

If I'm guessing you haven't set up different user accounts on the web server. take a look at the FAQ's from Xampp webpage they have several points on modifying permissions. Or try changing the main password and using that on the login screen.xampp FAQ

actually i worked it out ok.. it was a minor error with the server name in apache's httpd.conf file, and there was a firewall set up on the server. problem solved.
