Dear All,
Yesterday i have installed WAMP server in the students labs. It is working fine through admin login. But when student login though their windows server 2008 domain login, it prompt for user name and password. Then i have given the WAMP directory full rights to students group but this also could not solve the problem. I do not want to give admin rights to student group. Please help me to solve this problem.

To run a web server, you need to be an admin w/ full privilege; however, in your case you can find a work-around by setting up VH and FTP
Install a FTP server such as Filezilla server on wamp machine; setup 1 FTP user account for each student and its document root will be the same folder that you setup in VH; for example, student1 has FTP account student1 which document root is the folder C:/wamp/www/student1 as set in VH as follows:
[jlbn.com]
No matter within or outside LAN access, 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; w/ VH, other PC's, no matter w/i or outside LAN, can access and see websites or contents of that particular folder set for that particular VH on your wamp PC. If dont have real Domain, just skip DNS guide

<VirtualHost *:80> ... DocumentRoot C:/wamp/www/student1 ... </VirtualHost>The student will use FTP client such as Filezilla client to upload their php scritps to their FTP account; then, they can type 'http://student1' to show the webpage and/or content of folder c:\wamp\www\student1, for example, 'http://student2' to show the webpage and/or content of folder c:\wamp\www\student2, 'http://student3' to show the webpage and/or content of folder c:\wamp\www\student3 ... in additions, you can add their shortcuts such as site1, site2, site3... to custom WAMP Menu for quick access; check screenshot below
