For educational purposes, i have set up a smf board on this computer (WinXP). I learned how to install everything and the board seems to work fine... for me.

I can type in localhost or my ip adress, it works fine, but other people get errors (404).

This is probably because i didn't port forward or something probably. I added the exception in firewall.
I turned off skype, the only things i have running are AVG, Firefox and Wamp.

Help please <sad smiley

you need set access, vh, and dns but suggest to setup backup and pass first

to setup backup, follow this

to setup password, follow this
[blog.jlbn.net]

you need to setup access, dns, and vh; access for permission to connect to your wamp pc, dns to tie domain(s) to your wamp pc, and vh to host multiple domains/websites and even you have only 1 domain/ip, you should use vh to set it up w/ the site you want to show up first on top and localhost on bottom and others in middle if having more than 1 site; if dont have real domain, just skip dns guide

to setup access, follow this

to setup vh, follow this

to setup dns, follow this
