External access to Web Site from WAMP Server

First, I am new to WAMP Server and want to instead of using localhost refer to the site on the Internet with a DNS name. I understand how to register the Domain name, configure DNS, and NAT up the external IP address from behind the firewall. What I do not understand is how to associate the combination of TCP 80 with 1 or more dns names and having that point to the start directory for the site. This is quite easy to do with MAMP Pro, but I just do not know how in WAMP.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi,

The best way is to define a virtual host, to allows you to run multiple websites (associated with one or more domains) on the same webserver.

Follow this guide to setup VirtualHost on Wamp => [blog.jlbn.net]

Please read each step...

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/IP's 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
