[SOLVED] how to get wireless network computers to connect to http://localhost

hello;

 

I have a home network with 3 pc's; one of them, pcA, has Apache/php/mysql running on it;

 

from pcA I simply type http://localhost in a browser and I indeed get the server;

 

is it possible to get my other wirelessly connected ( Linksys ) pc's to also connect to pcA?

 

 

thanks

Yes, on pcA determine the ipaddress  ipconfig /all , ifconfig -a or whatever... then on the other computers put in that ip..... i.e http://192.168.1.101

 

also, you should make the server have a static ip....

 

good luck

jsladek, thanks for responding;

 

indeed pcA ( with the server ) has an ip of 192.168.1.101 ;

 

so, in pcB, I input http://192.168.1.101 into IE6 browser ( old win98 machine for testing );

 

but no go;

 

thanks though,
