hey guys, im trying to my apache/php server working outside my LAN but everybody I have asked is says the same thing, "server not found". I have tried a few things like opening port 80(tcp/ip) and placing the computer in the DMZ, neither seemed to make any difference.

network model:

computer1\____
computer2\____ |router|______modem_____internet~~

thanks for any help.

its easy to do.... i was trying to setup ftp on a redhat box for about 8 hours... finally figured i was using the wrong ip address and was logging into my router instead! :mad: needed a drink after that...
