I am going to love this software. Just a few things to sort with your help please.

Running Win XP
Have mapped c:/wamp/ on LAN machines .

Can I share "localhost" with browsers on other LAN machines. If so please advise URL address for browsers.

Regards

Mac

Yes. If I don't remember wrong, it should be:
[localhost]
[127.0.0.1]
[wamp_unit_ip_address] (i.e [192.168.1.2])
Hope this help

If your LAN is working properly, it should be automatically shared. Let's say you have 2 pc connected over LAN, you installed WAMP on the PC-1, then you created a script (html or PHP). Then find out PC-1 IP address. On your PC-2, type the following on the browser address :

//localhost/ "PC-1 IP ADDRESS"/script.htm

It should work


Good Luck!

Correction it should be:

// "PC-1 IP ADDRESS"/script.htm

not:

//localhost/ "PC-1 IP ADDRESS"/script.htm


"http:" can be omitted. "//" works fine alone



Sorry
