requinix Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Have you set up DNS inside the network yet? Do that, and add a DNS entry for the site.

But on windows OS, I don't need to set up DNS la. Just install Xampp and access from other computer to the web computer by computer name Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/312322-set-website-name-for-intranet-on-linux-apache/#findComment-1585185 Share on other sites More sharing options...

requinix Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Could what be on Linux? Windows computers can find Windows computers via a method that is not DNS. I don't believe Linux supports that mechanism. So if you want Windows->Windows to work with http://computername then that should happen for you. If either of them is Linux then you'll need either a hosts file entry (for each computer wanting to access it) or an intranet DNS server.
