WampServer

I cannot get this to work!!!:-(

FRESH INSTALL OF LATEST WAMP VERSION 2.4
WINDOWS 7 HOME PREMIUM


I want to know how to serve several websites with each one on a different partition of the harddrive and for them to be accessible to the public using no-ip host direct service! I have looked at so many guides, video tutorials, created Aliases, virtual hosts, configured Options Indexes FollowSymLinks directives and I still can't get this *** thing to work!

There is no step by step guide and so many people have different requirements and so many people offer different solutions. And so many people it works for and so many people it doesn't! I am lost in a pool of so much information with very little to go on. I'm not a techie but I'm not a newbie at reading or trying to understand either. I can do some but cannot seem to find where I'm going wrong. I don't want to be referred to more long winded websites, guides or manuals. I would like an easy step by step guide from fresh install to full config of Wampserver to host multiple sites that can be viewed by the public or show me where I'm going wrong in this. Can anyone who knows what to do, speak intelligibly but simply and show me where i'm going wrong? and answer these questions?


DocumentRoot "M:/siteA"
- Does Document root mean, path AND folder of website pages?


ServerName siteA
- Does Servername mean Name of PHYSICAL Computer with websites in it or the folder name with the web pages are in?

<Directory "M:/siteA">
- is this just M:/ ? as in just the partition letter assigned or do I add the folder name as well..

and this bit

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all

does it allow the public to see my websites? ... Does it go in http.conf or vhost.conf?


-----------------------------------
THIS IS MY SETUP:-(
-----------------------------------

Status: FRESH WAMP install W:/wamp, and W:/wamp/www
No Aliases created.


Wamp light stays on orange
