Subdomains when using WAMP for public use

Hey,

I manually created some subdomains in the httpd.conf, httpd-vhosts.conf, and hosts files they work perfectly locally but when I try to access them externally they don't work.

[1.2.3.4] // works
[sub.1.1.2.3.4] // doesn't work

Any ideas?

Folders?

Ip/site1
Ip//site2

Or use domains - like the Internet uses!

I've tried folders but what does the host file look like?

127.0.0.1 localhost/site1

Doesn't work.

I apologize for not grasping this but I am extremely new to this!

Basically I want to host multiple sites, now I setup folders in the root:

www/site1
www/site2

However, when referencing an image for site1 in HTML

<img src="/images/logo.png" alt="example">

It will look for the folder images on the www level not www/site1. I already setup he virtual hosts in the apache config for each site so I'm just confused on how to make these sites their own root. Sorry if I am unclear.

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/see websites/contents of that particular folder set for that particular VH on your wamp PC. If dont have real Domain, just skip DNS guide
