rmariano02 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Hi, I have a couple questions here -- maybe someone can help me out, INTRANET: Is there a site somewhere with details on the server side of setting up an Intranet? I'm a student -- and i'm a bit lost when it comes to server side configurations. I've created an website, but i don't know how to set up an INTRANET from scratch. I dont know where to begin to set up the server. I'm sure it's fairly simple - but I have very basic questions. Like how can i setup an Intranet by just using a desktop or Laptop, what can i use?(crossable, Bluetooth, etc), doest it support PHP and sql server? how two computer can access the site. As you can see, I need basic instruction. If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kicken Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Intranet just refers to your local area network. In other words all your computers are networked together via a switch/router so they can talk to each other. The intranet is the part of that which is on the private side of the router (the public such as me cannot access it). Once you have all your computers networked together and talking to each other, it's just a matter of what services you want on your intranet. if you want a website you need to setup a webserver such as apache to handle that. Maybe Mysql and PHP if you need them for your site. When that is setup all your other computers can just browse to the server computers IP and use the site. You can setup a name to use rather than IP by adding entries to each computers host file, or setting up a local DNS server. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
