Topic: intranet xampp, can see admin page, but not local sites

[dugal]

I have installed xampp for my school to use as an intranet. I have also installed wordpress on that system. It works fine on local computer.


Now, I can see the XAMPP home page from other computers, but can't find any of the folders located in the XAMPP/htdocs folder?

Is this possible or am I missing something compeletly?

clab is the host computer name and 192.168.22.47 is ip address

i have tried to go to http://clab30/wordpress/index.php

and

http://192.168.22.47/wordpress/index.php

and

http://192.168.22.47/xampp/wordpress/index.php

Any suggestions?

Do you want to serv that domain only inside your LAN?
I think you set up a vhost with that name clab30

Than there are two possible solutions

you can create in each PC in LAN an entry in the hosts file.
%windir%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

or

you can set up a DNS server that all PCs know that name.

Thanks James for the answer, turns out it was a wordpress setting that was wrong. I needed to change the home url inside wordpress from localhost to clab30.

Thanks for taking the time to give suggestions. Have a good one.
